Get a Writing Credit: Write a Review


I just got an email from editor Suzann Holland, who, along with the staff of Key Publishing House, is offering writers the chance to review the soon-to-be-published anthology Women Writing on Family: Tips on Writing, Teaching and Publishing (click here for the Facebook page), which has gotten a much nicer book cover design.

This is a great chance to accrue a writing credit for the resume paragraph necessary for all query letters, while also getting to read a great book about writing. While win-win is cliche, the phrase is applicable in this case.

Lastly, if you'd like me to guest blog on your site regarding the topic of my article in the anthology — How to Write About Family Without Getting Sued, or Shunned — or any other aspect of writing nonfiction, let me know. I'll be happy to contribute a piece that's suitable for your blog community.

If you're interested in reviewing the book, here's some contact info. (be sure to say you heard about the book here!):

• Suzann Holland, co-editor of the anthology, (suzann@suzannholland.com)

• Carol Smallwood, co-editor (smallwood@tm.net)

• Heather in the Media Department of Key Publishing based in Toronto, Ontario

Happy writing!
