- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Surefire ways to get your magazine article queries accepted
- One of my writing discussion groups recently had a topic thread going about the success rate of pitching magazine article ideas. It seems that the standard acceptance rate is about 30% - 40%. In my own experience though, I've had about a 90% acceptance rate and I mentioned that in the group. This inevitably led to a nuts and bolts discussion, and I thought I'd share these tips with you. ...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Stories and feelings
- Many stories are a journey of feeling for a story's audience. As characters overcome or pass through various obstacles to get what they want, they pass through stages of feeling, and readers who identify with these characters or become invested in what happens to them, share these feelings. This makes a story different than real life, where many people struggle to access their true ...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Stimulate your senses!
- When you get stuck for ideas, and the words won't flow, invariably it's because one, more or all of your senses aren't being stimulated. Staring at a blank screen or sheet of paper really doesn't help. The best way to stimulate all your senses in one hit is to provide an inspirational space you can work with. Lots of Feng Shui arrangements appear in we...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Starting a writing career (or how i sifted through the muck and found my way)
- So, the decision is final. I am a writer. Actually, I have always been a person who writes, but I have never applied the term to myself in a professional sense. Having pushed aside my financial fears and gained the requisite self-confidence, I began to surf the net in earnest for information about how to begin a freelance writing career. The vast amount of information was daunting e...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Starting a freelance writing career (or thoughts about taking the plunge)
- Nike's ad has taken on new meaning for me of late; "Just do it!" runs through my mind like a mantra. Although my dreams have nothing to do with athletic shoes and little to do with athletics (unless you count the long list of ideas I have developed which revolve around my sons and their activities), I have spent a long time avoiding the one thing I've always wanted to do - write. Wr...

- Imagine yourself taking an early morning walk in Tulsa, Oklahoma only to see a ?big bright light, like a fire? in the sky. The object continues to get bigger as it approaches overhead. A few minutes later, you feel a gentle tap on your shoulder. You look around only to find a light piece of charred metal, about the size of your hand. You've been hit! Impossible you say? Just ask Lot...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Some faqs for aspiring copywriters
- I get an email at least once a week from aspiring copywriters seeking advice on how to get a foothold in the industry. It's obviously a popular topic, so I thought I'd put some of the more common questions and answers on paper in the hopes that it might provide a bit of an insight. Q: What does a copywriter do in a typical day? A: This question is very comprehensively...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - So you want to be a copywriter?
- Caught you looking! Wannabe copywriters often check out my site for information relating to my services and fees. And quite right too! I still give my competitor's websites a 'gander' every now and then, in case they're doing something that I should be doing. I receive many emails from students working towards their marketing or other media degrees, asking for a few ...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - So you need some inspiration? try some rpc: risk, passion and creativity!
- You want to write. You really do. But the passion you feel never gets translated into actual writing. And if it does, it doesn't last very long. You run out of steam. There are reasons for this. First, you may be writing out of your conscious mind. Another problem for many writers is that they don't have enough technical facility with the craft of writing to know how to develop a pi...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Simple steps lead to successful books
- Like most first time authors, I figured that once the word was out that I'd written a book, the world would beat a path to my door wanting to buy it. I'll admit I gave little thought to marketing until the day my first printing of Handbook To A Happier Life was delivered. In a panic, I called a published author I knew and asked, "What do I do now?" She suggested several books about book marketing,...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - is your character struggling?
- A story where everything comes easy to the character is a very bland piece of writing ? and not a very believable one either. Short stories, in a way, reflect real life. The characters are real because the characters we think of could be someone in the world. The emotions are real because human beings feel. Some situations and events are real because they could happen in real life....

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - does your character overcome each problem?
- Think of a conflict you have been through. Why was it hard to resolve? Was it because, beside the conflict itself, there were other problems associated with it? There was a lot at stake for you, wasn??t there? You weighed the consequences of each option and tried to come up with a solution, one that be satisfying, and in which you didn??t stand to lose. ...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - does your character overcome the conflict himself?
- Your story belongs to your main character. And because it's his story, everything associated with that story is his. The goal is his, the problems are his, the conflict is his etc. And because the conflict will arise from a situation in his life, then he has to be the one to solve the conflict in the end. Why does he have to do this? For the ending to be satisfying an...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - does the conflict affect your character?
- Conflicts create waves in our calm lives. The greater the conflict the more impact it will have on us. No one likes conflicts. Conflicts require action (we have to do something about the problem that's been created) or conflict requires decisions (we have to choose something over something else). So the greater the conflict the greater the wave it creates. Think of wh...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - is your conflict resolved by another character?
- How great is it when we??re going through a major crisis and someone comes up with a solution for us? In real life we hope someone will solve our problems and sometimes that happens. Someone else solving our problems is the easy way out. This won??t do for a story. In short stories, the character has to solve his own conflict. ~~~~~~~~~~~...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - is there something at stake for your character?
- In your story, does your character have to achieve his goal no matter what? Have you raised the stakes so high that he will struggle because the goal is so important to him? Your character's goal has to be pretty important to him because that's what will motivate him in your story. When goals are conjured up from a whim, they are not powerful enough to sustain the character'...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - is the conflict resolved by another force?
- In real life we don't want to deal with conflict and hope it will be resolved by someone else, or something else. As with having the conflict resolved by another character, the same here applies having the conflict resolved by another force. Such as the weather, luck, nature, coincidence, province etc. All are weak devices to use and should be avoided at all costs. Le...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - does the resolution of the conflict come from the conflict?
- The solution is where the problem is. We just have to find it. If in your story the conflict arises from a decision the character has to make, then the conflict will be solved when your character makes a decision. If the conflict comes from something the character must do (from an action he needs to perform in order to solve the conflict) the resolution will c...

- 2007-03-26 12:55:48 - Short story writing tips - are problems escalating in your story?
- In order to see the character struggling we'll have to introduce problems. These, your character will solve as they occur and these are going to be problems associated with your conflict. Each of these problems will vary in intensity - some will be easier to solve than others. Some will be less important ? but still preventing him from reaching his goal. Others will be enormous.

- An important question for any artist is: How can I built a career and simultaneously be true to myself? It's an important question, and during the twenty years I've taught writing, hundreds of students have expressed the belief that success and personal integrity are mutually exclusive. The Lifewriting? approach to fiction suggests that not only do these two qualities overlap, but t...

- It's one thing to write a book, it's an entirely different thing to write one that's a saleable, viable, marketable product. Ensuring the success of a book is something even the biggest publishers have never been able to guarantee. Mitigating circumstances, flash trends, and world events will all affect buyer preferences.

- I started my first manuscript during my junior year at Virginia Tech. I had a couple of characters in mind, a flimsy skeleton of a plot, and one pressing question. Where to set the book? At that point in my life, I hadn't traveled too far past the Virginia state line. And to me, the rest of the world sounded alluring in a way the town I grew up in couldn't compare. So...

- Imagine this: You're in the elevator with the producer of your favorite show. The program you've been trying to get on for years. What would you say to this person?

- Today is like many of the summer days I spent at my grandparents' house in Indiana?except I am writing, instead of reading and I am sitting in a chair on my deck, instead of on a branch in a tree growing in front of my grandparents' house.
