KNOCK-OFFS

My sister gave me a knock-off Dolce & Gabbana purse a couple
years ago for Christmas. She was so proud of herself. I had
to ask what D & G stood for, which popped her gift-giving bubble.

I just liked the handbag. It was black. It had the right
compartments. The strap was the proper length. It was practical.
It met my needs. Whether it was a real designer bag or not made
no difference. It suited my purpose.

I'm not a handbag person, so I can name very few famous
purse manufacturers. Gucci, Dior, and Coach are about it,
and I know the latter because I won one in a tennis tournament.
As long as I'm happy with the size, weight, organization and
color, I'm happy.

Put a book in my hand, however, and I'll look at the cover
first, the publisher second. My time is limited, my reading
stack piled three feet high, so I'm selective. But writing is
my niche, and I understand publishing to a certain degree.
Publishing source is one of my filters when I'm seeking
personal reading entertainment.

However, the average person wants a good story and doesn't
recognize the publisher. I can see all you self-published souls
nodding in agreement with me. The time has come that it doesn't
matter where you publish as long as the reader is satisfied.
You are right, but it's not that easy.

Many writers preach that people ought to buy from indie
publishers and indie bookstores. Jane Doe goes to Barnes &
Noble, people. If she's got a coupon for a free latte, she'll
buy her Christmas presents there, too. So when you put on
your website or blog "Buy Indie," you're speaking to writers,
not the general population who clicks on Amazon or B&N logos
first and foremost. After all, you get Super Saver Shipping
if you spend $25 or more.

So while you might self-publish a grand story, and people
don't care who published it, an important point remains
apparent. Shoppers have to find your book. They have to
know the book exists.

So, no, it doesn't matter to many readers how a book is
published. It does matter, however, how readily available
it is to buy, and easy it is to find. That, my friends, is
where traditional publishers have the edge. They have the
reach, the connections, the inside network with booksellers.

In other words, you can publish a Pulitzer-worthy book,
but if you do not have the platform to inform the world,
what does it matter?

People run to malls and online bookstores to buy. Your
mission is to build a name for your work, capture the
public's eye, develop a following. Because writing a good
book doesn't matter if it's not in mainstream channels,
spoken about on subways and handed from friend to friend
to enjoy.

Writing is half the work; marketing is the other. Readers
abound for traditional, indie, or self-published books.
Like me with my handbag, it doesn't matter who published
a good book. It matters more how I get my hands on it.

WORDS OF SUCCESS

We cannot waste time. We can only waste ourselves.

~George Matthew Adams

 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SUCCESS OF THE WEEK
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Hope,

I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you about the
amazing opportunity that I have been given.

First, thank you so much for your newsletter. I can't remember
how I stumbled up on it but I signed up for all three! I always
look through it for contest opportunities, and especially your
encouraging words.

Well one day I saw that there was a Winter Poetry & Prose
Getaway in Cape May (http://www.wintergetaway.com) and that
a scholarship contest was being offered, the Toni Brown
Memorial Scholarship, for economically challenged would-be
attendees. You said it was worth a look, so I applied, never
thinking I would get it, and indeed I didn't get it. However,
they saw enough potential in me that they extended me a Second
Place prize covering the cost of the Writing for the YA &
Crossover Markets Workshop that I was interested in.

Hope, it's all just enough money so that I can go!

Now, I am a competitive person, having done well in school,
corporate America, and in life up until 2 years ago when an
illness sidelined me.I can honestly tell you that I have never
been so happy to come in second place. Out of sixty entries to
be named number two in my first official writing contest, is
an amazing feeling. I have been given the encouragement that
I needed at the exact right time to keep going.

Perhaps, I keep saying to myself, just perhaps... and in the
end hope is all I needed. Hope, the pun is intended and heartfelt.

I am looking at spending four days with like minds, in a
wonderful environment, learning about my craft, with people
just like me. I know this will change my life.I just wanted
to share my story and success with you as it is partly yours.
I would never have heard about it had it not been for
FundsForWriters nor have been bold enough without the continued
support of family, friends, and a certain newsletter.

You are truly making a difference.
God bless you and I thank you!

PS -  Career Communications, Inc. just sent me a letter asking
for writing samples, another opportunity I would never have
had without the newsletter. Thanks Hope!

ARTICLE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THOSE WHO CAN, TEACH                       
by Cynthia MacGregor
 
You know the old expression: "Those who can, do. Those who
can't, teach." Horsefeathers! I've been earning my living as
a freelance writer/editor for decades, so obviously I can do.
And I also teach.
 
It should be evident, if I earn my living writing and editing,
that I'm not a full-time schoolteacher. But I've taught writing
classes for adults on and off (and more "on" than "off") for
over 20 years now.
 
Where? How? Let me answer that question from my own experience
and then make a few additional suggestions. My first gig
teaching writing was through the Lake Worth (a nearby town
here in South Florida) Recreation Department. I then went on
to teach through the Community Education division of the county's
public schools, which offers evening classes for adults. Most
recently, since I no longer wanted to teach at night, I arranged
to give Saturday morning classes under the auspices of the Palm
Springs (FL) Leisure Services Department.
 
Other options include classes offered through your local "Y,"
library, or as an adjunct faculty member at a college.
(Community colleges are your best bet, and something more
targeted than the broad "Creative Writing" is less likely to
conflict with a course already offered by a regular faculty
member.)
 
What's in it for you? Not just the satisfaction of encouraging
would-be or fledgling writers, but actual monetary earnings as
well. Though arrangements may be different in your area, Lake
Worth Rec and Palm Springs Leisure Services both paid me a
portion of each student's course fee; the Palm Beach County
school system paid me by the hour, irrespective of the number
of students in my class. As well, though I've never pushed this
arrangement myself, I know of other adult writing course teachers
who have offered their services as an editor or writing coach to
students, outside of class, for a fee.
 
What do you teach? There's no one set answer to that. It depends
on what you're interested in teaching and what you feel competent
to teach. There are classes in the very broad "Creative Writing,"
classes that specialize in fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and plays,
and classes explicitly for writing memoirs. One local writer
offered a course called "Write Your Novel in Six Weeks." Other
writers have offered classes that zeroed in on plotting,
characterization, and dialogue.
 
While classes offered through a school usually follow the school's
semester schedule with inflexible start and end dates, with classes
offered in other venues, the number of sessions is usually left up
to the teacher.
 
Should you cap the size of your class? And if so, at how many?
Most organizations give you the right to set a maximum number of
students you'll accept into the course. I find 15 is a good number,
but let me add that I haven't always abided by it.
 
Colleges are the most stringent in their requirements for accepting
a teacher into their program. Public schools may require that you
be fingerprinted and pass a background check, even though you're
dealing with adults and not kids.
 
I have long been known among my friends and my peers for helping
fellow writers and would-be writers, taking the time to sit down
with them and advise them, so teaching is just a natural
progression for me. There's something extremely satisfying in
helping a fellow writer get started, or advance his/her career.
But getting paid to do so is a very delicious icing on the cake.
 
Those who can, do. And if they have the aptitude for it, they
also make great teachers.

WHY ADVERTISE IN FUNDSFORWRITERS?

For my first advertising for my fledging business I needed to
make strategic choices within a very limited budget. I chose
to advertise in two places:  the Funds for Writers (FFW)
newsletter and a major writer's magazine (circulation of 100,000).
FFW far outperformed the magazine! From my first FFW ad I got an
immediate and enormous spike in traffic to my web site and within
24-hours had more than 100 people sign up on my website. And that
was just the first ad! Over the course of the six-week ad campaign
I saw a noticeable spike in traffic after each ad hit people's
inboxes and in total garnered at least 500 new sign-ups.

If you're thinking about advertising in FFW, do it!
