Editor’s THOUGHTS
TURNING DOWN THE GIG
I just turned down a reprint offer. Someone wanted me to rewrite an article I wrote for them a year ago. It's brought a lot of traffic to their website, but it had dated links in it. They asked me to just do it (for all the exposure it would bring me, they said), then when I asked about compensation, they said $50 and they deactivate the link in my bio (meaning people cannot locate me), or I write for free and they give me an active link so people can find
me and purchase my work.
This sort of gimmick irritates the crap out of me. It's like they are holding your byline hostage. You can write for exposure or for money, but not both.
Please let me know if you have experienced one of these types of sites. Not only would I like to keep a list, but I would love to hear from you as to your opinion of this setup. Maybe I'm overlooking something. Maybe there are pros that I'm overlooking. Brainstorming here, I see the pros and cons as follows:
PRO: If the site has a huge following, it might be a good deal for a new writer.
CON: If the author has a huge following, it's a better deal for the site.
PRO: It pays.
CON: You cannot benefit from the exposure because there are no links to you. Trust me, nobody searches Google for a writer in a lone article in hopes of finding them. Instead, that same reader would wonder why the writer of the article has no link.
It's an arm-twisting technique, in my opinion. Why not just pay you? Why not give you a link with the payment? A site benefits from exposure as well as the writer, and why not swap readers? It's bad enough that Huffington Post pays nothing, but this new method of nonpayment is not cool at all.

The Shy Writer Reborn
An Introverted Writer's Wake-Up Call
As an introvert and a writer, you feel stretched to choose between the lesser of two evils -marketing to people who'll most likely criticize you, or putting your writing on the back burner. Introverts have strengths that make them marketable, creative, and successful. Forget those people who tell you to change, to put on a different personality, to dance like a monkey before crowds. Here is the support to be a writer and remain who you care to be . . . genuine.
Hope has solutions in The Shy Writer
Reborn that let you make the most of who you are instead of asking you to change. ~Linda Formichelli, The Renegade Writer
As a self-diagnosed introvert, I know the fears of many writers who are literally afraid to follow their passion and be successful. C. Hope Clark shares how to overcome that fear while navigating interview, pitches, queries, and more. This is the book that will help you find and cultivate an audience for your writing. ~Robert Lee Brewer, Senior Content Editor, Writer's Market

Entertainment Writing Jobs You May Not Have Considered – Part 1 of 2
By Mark Heidelberger
As a former literary manager, I represented film and television writers for the better part of eight years. Many of the talented but less experienced writers who hadn’t yet made a living at the craft were solely interested in creating original screenplays that would be shopped to production companies, studios and packaging agents. They never wished to consider the myriad other ways they could make money in the industry with far less competition, even if such work might lead to their
ultimate goals. Here are a few such ideas for those writers seeking to take the road less traveled:
Become a Writer’s Assistant
Feature film and television writers have assistants that do everything from menial work like rolling calls and faxing to more creative pursuits like researching, writing synopses, doing coverage, and even giving development notes. The hours might be long and the grunt work tiresome, but it’s one of the best ways to see how scripts get produced. It also allows you to make connections with other professionals like agents and producers.
In the case of television, you see how a writer’s room runs while taking notes for the staff writers. Moreover, TV shows often promote from within, giving promising assistants an episode to write after a season or two. To get such a job requires tenacity and fortitude, but high turnover rate among industry assistants means jobs are opening up all the time. Join online writers’ groups and attend events to network with other assistants, scour entertainment job aggregators like
the UTA Joblist, and post your assistant profile on job sites like Media Match to try and get in the door.
Voice-Over Copywriting
You hear voice-over in movie trailers all the time. You know the guy who begins by saying, “In a world where XYZ happens?” Well, someone is paid to write those lines – usually a copywriter who works for or has a relationship with the trailer house that produces the content. Since many writers don’t consider this type of work, there are far fewer of them querying trailer houses for work than studios or production companies. Search online for contact info on trailer
houses and send queries to their in-house producers along with any relevant writing samples you may have. Offer to do a test run on one film for free to see if they like your work, and tell them you’ll only charge if they want to use it. If they agree, they’ll usually give you a movie to watch and some creative direction. Make sure you are clear on format, length and style requirements. In addition, since voice-over work is prevalent in other areas like radio and television
commercials, you may do well to reach out to ad agency executives who are also in the market for someone who can capture the voice of a campaign.
Write Educational Materials
Those with a more extensive track record and knowledge of the entertainment world could use their talents to help others. Educational materials such as how-to books, film history guides, and resource manuals have become a more viable option with the rise of downloadable ebooks and self-publishing. Having some specific know-how in a given area, whether it’s fundraising, non-linear editing or Italian New Wave directors, makes you more appealing.
Reach out directly to university film departments to gauge their interest in your material, even before you create it. If they’re not interested, they may be willing to offer suggestions on materials that would better fit their curriculum. Smaller colleges and certificate schools may be more accessible for those writers who don’t have a master’s degree and a lengthy resume. You can also contact organizations like US-based TES, Journeys in Film or British-based Film Education to see if they’re willing to let you create paid lesson plans or other original teaching materials for their programs.
(Tune in next week for Part 2 of Entertainment Writing Jobs You May Not Have Considered)

please make sure you list the publications you've written and include photocopied examples of your published work.
