I just finished reading Jenna Glatzer’s book, Make a Real Living as a Freelance Writer: How to Win Top Writing Assignments, and I must say that it was money well spent–very well spent. I enjoyed her style and voice. She’s very encouraging and is a great teacher. That said, get the book!!

As I was reading the last few pages, though, it “dawned on me” that I am literally sitting on a fabulous story for a magazine. I can’t imagine why on earth I hadn’t thought to query a magazine about this topic. It’s just insane that I’ve been letting this hot story burn up right beneath my nose! I should have smelled the smoke!

Sometimes I don’t think we realize what type of stories are living, breathing, and floating all around us, just sitting and waiting to be grabbed up and written about. Maybe it just doesn’t sink in or something. I’m glad I finally realized it though. I’m off to write a query!

Watch out for the stories dancing all around you while writing the cyber highway!

Well, I’m almost finished reading Jenna Glatzer’s book, Make a Real Living as a Freelance Writer: How to Win Top Writing Assignments. I must say I’ve enjoyed it a lot. It’s easy to read, easy to understand, and it’s full of great information. Better yet, Jenna comes across as friendly and makes you just want to keep reading!

I’m surely not the only one who’s been reading something new lately. Anyone else with their nose stuck between an interesting book cover?

I feel for those that have outdoor jobs, don’t you? The heat is atrocious!

Stay cool and keep writing the cyber highway!

Yesterday I received Jenna Glatzer’s book, Make a Real Living as a Freelance Writer: How to Win Top Writing Assignments, in the mail.I ordered it after I saw it on write-from-home.com. There is a link called Recommended Reading for Writers on that site and Jenna Glatzer’s book is listed there.

Really, I haven’t had as much time as I’d like to read it but I can tell already I’m going to love this book!
