Social Media & Buy Links for Our #notRWA17 Presenters

August 7, 2017August 7, 2017 / Olivia Dade / Leave a comment

Hello again! A few people suggested we post the social media and buy links for all the #notRWA17 presenters. The talented and generous Erin Satie volunteered to compile the information, and she got it to me about a week ago. But again: novella-in-progress. (Sorry.) With my sincere apologies, here are the links now! ♥

P.S. I’ve included the full links, instead of making each heading (“Website,” “Twitter,” etc.) clickable. Sorry about that too! But I figured the full links would get the job done and take a LOT less time, so… #lazy
