HOPE'S HOPE
Well, the results are overwhelming. For some reason you guys
like seeing my mug on the newsletters and the website. One
lady put it in perspective saying that correspondence is so
cold these days that seeing a face behind the information is
warming and interesting. Another said she's noticed since she
started posting her picture with her material that fewer
people had the nerve to bash her. Once people put a face with
the name and writer, it was harder to criticize.

The Internet makes us behave in odd ways. For some reason the
tool that allows us to reach more people in the shortest amount
of time, makes us think we are not seen when we do it. If we
could sit in an auditorium and look out over the sea of people
equivalent to the number that reads our chats, forums, email
and blogs, we'd be phenomenally more careful in our choice of
words.

There are few topics of personal interest I'd broadcast across
the web for fear of alienating those who thought differently.
Since FundsforWriters is an entity about writing, those topics
involve getting paid instead of writing for free, being leery
of many self-publishing entities, and making time to write.
My politics, religion and views on global warming remain
hidden in my personal realm, to be brought out in the proper
settings and the voting booth.

Snippy opinions in a list serve might reach the desk of an
agent when she Googles your name. Some young people are
learning that their ample opinion can land on a potential
employer's computer as easily as the guy down the hall.

As writers, we preach it all the time. Words are power.
That doesn't mean that GOOD words are power. It means all
words - the nasty, the pretty, the hateful, the empowering,
the inspiring, the joyful and the sad.

the inspiring, the joyful and the sad.
My suggestion...if you cannot write upbeat, then write with
a constructive criticism, respectful of the other person or
persons, since nothing online can be guaranteed to be read
by one. Bashing someone only makes enemies.

Pundits are one thing. They write to general debate. But if
you are writing mysteries, romance, magazine features, poetry
sci-fi, children's stories or even copywriter material, be
careful. We've seen political candidates and famous individuals
erode years of commitment with a single misspoken word.

HOW TO MAKE MONEY THROUGH RESTAURANT REVIEWS
HOW TO MAKE MONEY THROUGH RESTAURANT REVIEWS
ByJennifer Brown Banks
It was a marriage made in heaven.
An editor friend of a weekly newspaper needed someone to cover
a new, swank restaurant, and the person originally assigned
backed out. Since I had done work for him before, he contacted
me.

You won't find me living a lackluster life of sensible salads

gal who enjoys consuming food without counting calories, and
I'm proud of it! After all, Marilyn Monroe was a size 16.

What I found really cool about this sweet assignment was not
only would I get to dine for free, I was also allowed to bring
a guest. And did I mention the free booze?

Gorgonzola Au Gratin potatoes, cheese fondue, roasted peppers

The next day, I simply converted my scribblings to a review

And for my efforts? I got paid $40, had great fun, expanded
my writing portfolio, and discovered a new love!
AND HERE'S HOW YOU CAN TOO.
Here is a winning recipe to get you started in food writing.
1). REMEMBER TO EXPERIENCE THINGS THROUGH ALL YOUR "SENSES".
Note the textures of the foods, the colors, the aromas, and
what specifically made some dishes truly palate pleasing.

2). TAKE PLENTY OF NOTES -- Before the alcohol if possible.
3). WEAR COMFORTABLE CLOTHING. It would probably be a good
thing to wear attire that is not restrictive in nature, or
too tight. This way you won't have to undo your button under
the table after consuming a lot of food.

considered "finger foods".
