Short Writers' Sale and New Email

First I quickly wanted to tell you about a huge sale of books and magazines for writers going on at the Writers Digest Store.

They have a limited number of products on offer for a huge 65% discount.

But the sale ends of 19th March AND the products are limited because it's a clearance sale of books and magazines for writers that they will no longer be printing so if you don't get in now you'll miss out.

They have an agents search book, a book for children's writers, poets, song writers and more.

My Article Writing Experiment

This week I downloaded an ebook about article writing that I've wanted to download for a while but wasn't sure if it would be worthwhile.

Thankfully, my skepticism was unfounded and the ebook turned out to be a gem. It's all about writing articles quickly. In fact it promises to teach you how to write an article in just a few minutes. Less than 10 minutes.

So I read through the ebook (it wasn't very long) and then sat down and gave it a try.

And do you know what I discovered?

Reading, Learning and Writing

I use DreamWeaver software to create my websites (except this blog, of course) and this week I upgraded from DreamWeaver 5.5 to DreamWeaver 6. It was quite a learning curve to understand how to use the upgraded software and I had to sit and watch videos and read articles of how to use all the new features.

So I took an afternoon off from doing writing tasks and household chores to sit down and learn what I needed to know.

And this pretty much sums up being a writer because we read and learn as well as write, which all works to make us better writers.
