Notes on Links: I have each link open in its own browser window to avoid those endless Back buttons. I do use some commercial sites, but I only link to those that contain a substantial amount of free content. If you find a broken link or have a site you think I should add, please email Casey Smythe
General Literature Links
- Sparknotes
- Sparknotes are like those "other" notes for many novels and plays, only free
- CliffsNotes
- Another good site for help with novels

- Poetry.com indexes over 3.1 million poets! Be careful of the contests listed, though. Most are scams, forcing you to pay an entry fee or buy the publication.
