Thank you to everyone in the thread, I had no idea this was possible.

Thank you again to all.

Local media, especially print, are often scrambling to fill pages so they can sell more advertising. I'd call their newsdesk directly and inform them nicely that you're sending them a press release and are a local author if they would be…

Do you think Press Releases should be sent through a national service (for example, I use PRlog.com) AND also sent directly to local media with a version specific to letting them know you're a local author OR just one or the other?

Thanks Scribbler, this is good to know. Of course the raise will not help at tax time when you have to pay into the IRS.

Sandra, there's a chat tonight if you can make it. I know you need to be after 8 because of prior commitments but I'd love to see you if you can manage. :) It's from 7PM CST onwards.
Kay replied to Sandra Kitchen's discussion 'Looking for Freelance Work Does Not Need to be Difficult' in the group Writing For A Living
The "free" part of freelancing is that you are able to work for whoever you want, whenever you want. You're not tied to a company or employer and can work for several at once. It's not as easy as it sounds because you have to be…
Sandra Kitchen replied to Kay's discussion 'I'd love to try the chat'
Thanks Scribbler, I am back, just catching up on all the new posts.

Glad everyone has gotten the chat off to a good start, sorry I missed it. I have missed a lot I am sure, but had something personal that kept me from joining in here.
I will certainly join the next chat.

That's a really important point, scribbler. Getting the format right can even be used as part of a selection method. Editors have a limited amount of space to fill and won't waste time fixing things.
scribbler replied to Sandra Kitchen's discussion 'Press Release' in the group Free Book Marketing
This is a good thread! :) Another point: the layout of a press release follows a specific style. A press release that's not formatted properly gives a busy editor a reason to throw it in the trash and not even read it.
First timers often…

You are right Kay, one of the things that should be done before writing a press release is to research how to write one properly. It should be interesting information, not only advertising.
One of the things about a press release, while they are an…

Good post, Sandra. Turnaround time does vary with some being a lot faster than others. When you get that for free, you can't complain really though! :)
Here's a list of free PR distribution sites.

Sandra Kitchen commented on Boops_Tammy's blog post 'Authors, Writers, Publishing'
Hi Tammy, one of the easiest ways to fine a traditional publisher is to have an agent, this is someone that will know what publishers are looking for and will accept new writers. The best thing to do is research, both agents, how publishing works,…

The Soldier

He smelled blood and crossed the line into the events that played over and over in his mind, it had stopped for a time, but now it was back.
Danny could see and smell even taste the dust flying in the air, it had been a long fight not one of the other soldiers he was with could tell who the bad guys were.
