Fab Five Friday – January 29, 2010
Posted by Teresa | Under Fab Five Friday Saturday Jan 30, 2010If you are in search of an great editor, I happen to have a wonderful lady, Leah Dallaire of 911 editing, as my editor. You can learn more about Leah and 911 editing by visiting her site at 911editing.
Now for this list for the FAB FIVE FRIDAY:
1) via @freelanceguru tweeted about a post called Do you send query letters? Chris Bibey discusses the importance even in today’s electronic driven days, to send out query letters to publishers.
2) via @writingspirit tweeted about a NY Times post discussing Amazon raising the royalty rates for ebook Kindle authors. This post suggests the royalty rate for Kindle ebook authors could be as high as 25%…not bad at all. Another option for authors of all genres.
3 from @bookbuzzr tweeted a post via @toddeldridge & written by Phyllis Zimbler Miller which outlines about how to optimize your twitter profile to attract more client (and readers). I liked the two things she talked about regarding authors being sure they add personal attributes to their profile such as photo and bio. Your potential readers want to see you and know more about you.
4) via @thewritersden shares a post The Pic as a Prompt. Do you think a great pic can spark your creative juices? Check this pic out and see what comes to you.
5) via @creativepenn and @seanplatt comes a post called 6 people to trust in publishing. On the list is Joanna Penn and Christina Katz…and a few new people I now connected with on Twitter. Thanks Sean!
Each week, I am always excited about sharing with my readers a few twitters, posts and blogs on the subjects of writing, publishing and editing.
Thanks for reading and writers…keep writing!
