Thread: Pointer error in linked list

I know there is a very simple error in this that I just can't see. I am trying to load a sentence into a stack list, and while my function works, the pointers don't connect.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
 
typedef struct link {
	char word[30];
	struct link *nextPtr;
} Link, *LinkPtr;
 
void pushWord(LinkPtr curPtr, char inWord[30]);
void printList(LinkPtr curPtr);
 
int main(void) {
 
	char buffer[500] = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.";
	LinkPtr list0 = malloc(sizeof(Link));
 
	char* token = strtok(buffer, " ");
	strcpy(list0->word, token);
	list0->nextPtr = NULL;
 
	while (token != NULL) {
		token = strtok(NULL, " ");
		pushWord(list0, token);
	}
 
	printList(list0);
}
 
void pushWord(LinkPtr curPtr, char inWord[30]) {
	while (curPtr->nextPtr != NULL) {
		curPtr = curPtr->nextPtr;
	}
	curPtr->nextPtr = malloc(sizeof(Link));
	curPtr = curPtr->nextPtr;
	strcpy(curPtr->word, inWord);
	curPtr->nextPtr = NULL;
}
 
void printList(LinkPtr curPtr) {
	while (curPtr != NULL) {
		printf(" %s", curPtr->word);
		curPtr = curPtr->nextPtr;
	}
}

as curPtr changes word and nextPtr members, the original list remains unchanged.
