I’m having trouble keeping track of […]
I seem to be referring to Joe Wikert’s blog a lot - but he keeps pointing to things I wouldn’t find on my own, like: The Life of a Ghostwriter. That post in turn points to an article in the New York Times by fellow ghostwriter Christine Larson called: Expressing Passions (Just Not Your Own)
