Did you know that with Amazon’s Kindle you could become a
worldwide known bestselling author in 10 days or less?
Here is proof and a FREE book called
“How to Sell 100 Kindle Books a Day”.
What’s more, Kindle books are short, some as little as 20
pages and you can sell an entire series.
Did I mention you make 70% royalties and you can build a newsletter,
e-commerce or public speaking business on the back of your books?
You can combine 3-4 together and sell a print version, too!
This is the greatest opportunity since the invention of
the printing press.
P.S. Did you know that Kindle books outsold all print books on Amazon
(hard and soft copy) in 2012 and should easily double them in 2013?
Several authors have sold over 500,000 copies or more.
This is your chance to have you voice heard.

"I'M A POET AND DON'T KNOW IT"
How many times have you heard that when someone accidentally
rhymed their words? Amazingly, a lot of people are writing poetry,
however, stymied whether or not they should be doing so. They
want to be poets but don't know if they have what it takes. Often
they write me, attaching their poetry, asking if I think it's good.
Well, I'm NOT a poet and I KNOW it.
So I don't read their poetry. Don't even open the attachment. I
would never profess to know the craft if I don't read or write it
myself.
There used to be a gentleman on Facebook (who I recently unfriended)
who would shoot poetry out on his page, then message me to go read it.
I nicely refused. He then ordered me to read it, that I wouldn't know
if I liked it or not if I didn't read it. Well, since I don't read it,
there's no way I would want to guide him one direction or another as
to its quality.
But he brought up a grand point when he said, "If you don't read it..."
Nine times out of ten, when I explain to poets that I'm not a poet,
therefore, I will not critique their work, they ask me how can they
learn if they are any good. The first question I ask them is:
"How much poetry by other poets do you read?" They usually reply that
they do not read other poetry. They haven't bought a single poetry
book in the last year, two years, five years. In other words, they
cannot identify good poetry because they do not READ good poetry.
To develop a talent at your craft, you need to specialize. We all
know that. So if you are a poet (just picking out a genre here, all
apply), you should read acclaimed poets, study poetry composition,
attend readings, and join groups that are steeped in poetry study.
Don't have time? Don't like reading other people's work? Then dabble
in poetry for fun, but do not expect anyone to take it seriously
outside of your family and friends. It's like saying, "Hey, I'm
going to be a good artist/mechanic/doctor/teacher." Then you have
nothing to do with the good craftsmen who went before you. You
never study how-to lessons. You never analyze why some of them made
it and others did not.
You study the craft, then practice the craft. Study, then practice.
Practice never makes perfect when you don't have a clue what perfection is.

THE SHY WRITER REBORN
An Introvert's Wake-Up Call
Shy types, rejoice! Introversion may seem like a major obstacle to building
a successful writing career, but this wonderful “covers-all-the-bases” book
handily debunks the notion. The only bad news? You’ll have no more excuses
not to succeed! Highly recommended.
~Peter Bowerman, Author
“The Well-Fed Writer” series
www.wellfedwriter.com
Floating suspended in the liquid darkness, arms and legs extended,
I dared a look. Pitch black. Something soft brushed my leg. My
heart leaped, and I slammed my eyes shut again, more afraid to
see a shark come at me than one catching me by surprise. The
pressure in my lungs blossomed to pain. I tried to think about
fields, pastures, anything connected to dirt instead of water.

WORDS OF SUCCESS
Solitude is not a way of running away from life ...
from our feelings. On the contrary.
This is the time we sort them out, air them,
get over them, and go on
without the burden of yesterday.
~ Joan Chittister (The Gift of Years)

ARTICLE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Plan to Recycle BEFORE You Write
by Barbara Florio Graham
Writers are often unsuccessful at reselling published articles
because they address it backwards. You need to plan to recycle
before you write the first draft. Your first step should be to
brainstorm potential angles and markets.
I freelanced for CBC radio, interviewing local people for a
Saturday morning show featuring the arts. I met with a doll maker
who helped organize a doll show, and after I taped my radio segment,
I asked how she made her dolls and how she developed an interest in
this hobby. I requested back issues of the doll magazines she
subscribed to (and if she hadn't wanted to part with these, I would
have copied the masthead), asked about her education, and her husband's
profession.
Right after my segment went on the radio, I sold a short article to
the local daily paper and a longer profile of the doll maker for her
community paper. I queried the alumni magazine about profiling one
of their graduates, and the trade magazine for her husband's profession.
The alumni magazine agreed, and a seniors' magazine was interested in
how this woman had learned about antique dolls from her grandmother.
I then recycled this article once more for a children's magazine,
because I had obtained, in my initial interview, simple instructions
for creating an inexpensive doll out of found materials. That piece
was reworked for a craft magazine as well!
That's seven sales from one interview. Interview time is precious.
You need to prepare interview questions ahead of time with other
angles and markets in mind, so you don't have to spend time on
follow-up calls and queries.
One point the doll-maker mentioned was how popular dolls are as
special gifts for grandchildren, and for weddings. That provided
two additional markets I pursued later on, timed for pre-Christmas
issues of general interest, seniors', and wedding magazines.
Some of these stories never die, if you prepare properly.
Set up monthly marketing folders (or calendar reminders). If a query
is rejected the first time around, put a note to yourself to try
again when the editor changes. Older pieces can be rewritten slightly
pegged to current news, as I did when Peter Falk died and resold, yet
again, an article first published more than 40 years earlier.
When I was a student at Columbia University in the 1950s, I worked
on a student production with Peter Falk. I wrote about that a few
years later for Hollywood Magazine, then for Playbill, then for EMMY
Magazine, and it continued to sell to various newspapers since Columbo
is still on TV. This piece then found a home in Prose to Go: Tales
from a Private List, a collection of first-person stories I edited in
2011. I sold it again just after Falk died, a few months after the book
was published.
It's important to retain copyright in order to recycle the entire
article. But once you have the research, you can write a different
article for each market easily and quickly. Don't ignore a market
because it doesn't pay very well. Look at your hourly rate instead.
I can rewrite one primary article for six different markets in less
than two hours.
So can you.
