Creativity Tweets of the Week – 01/27/12

Today's creativity links outnumber the writing links two to one. I'm grateful to be named a Top 10 Blog for Writers, but I'm also grateful my readers tolerate my polymath interests.

Yes, my weekly collection of great links on creativity and writing is back after a several-week hiatus. I don't have many links to share when I don't tweet, and I've been negligent with my Twitter feed the last couple of weeks. Mea culpa. I still love you.

Guest Post: Mr. Bacon Goes to the National Book Festival

Many of my readers have been demanding that Mr. Bacon have his own blog. If I were to allow him to do that I'd have few readers left, so instead I've allowed Mr. Bacon to write a guest post. Enjoy.
