Questions about Writing/Publishing?

Someone once said, "Writing is an art; publishing is a business." How true! I love the art description but tend to resist the business part of the equation.

How about you? Do you have questions on either the art factor of writing or the business end of publishing? I've been at this for a lot of years, folks, and if I can draw from my decades of experience to help you out, I'm happy to do so. Just email me at ezyrtr@ca.rr.com with your questions, and then watch this blog for the answers. (If I don't have them, I'll track down someone who does!) And please pass this along to your writer friends, will you?

Blessings!!!

The Best Writer's Resource EVER!

Trust me, folks, I don't say this lightly! After thirty years in the writing world, I've seen, written, and contributed to a lot of writers' resources, but never have I seen one as comprehensive and practical as A Step in the Write Direction by Donna Clark Goodrich (www.thewritersfriend.net).

This beautifully written manual covers everything from the basics of composing a well-written piece to marketing it via print, online, and other forms of media. In fact, I am honored to be included in the marketing section about video trailers. Thank you, Donna!

If you purchase only one writer's resource book this year, by all means make it this one! And if you belong to a local critique group, encourage all the members to get a copy so you can use it as a basis for a group study. Check it out and order a copy at www.thewritersfriend.net. You won't regret it!
