Resource Thursdays: The Purple Crayon

You know what makes me happy?  Reeses Peanut Butter cups, getting chapters done, and, oh yeah, comprehensive writing resources.  You may not get the peanut butter cups from your visit, but you sure will get a ton of information out of The Purple Crayon.  This website, run by children’s book editor Harold Underdown, is a treasure trove of good stuff.  The site started out as Harold’s own material, and now includes references from other industry experts.  From manuscript basics to avoiding the slush pile, the site has articles for writers at every stage of the game.  I also love that it’s easily searchable, which can help make navigating the many pages a lot easier.
