Hello again,
Today I have a couple of recommendations of useful links.
The first comes from a colleague from my writers group, Lee Lyons. Here's what she wrote to me: Writingformoney.com
"Take advantage of this website and writing guru, John Clausen, who runs it. (Clausen wrote the book "Too Lazy to Work, Too Nervous to Steal" about freelance writing several years ago) Helpful tips and intros to different forms of freelancing are available always. A very nominal membership fee ($7.95) enables writers to post their own Portfolios to attract freelance work. It's a great site and I highly recommend it!"

I'd also like to plug a contest for our local Romance Writers of America chapter, so here are the details straight from the chapter president:
"February 14th is the deadline for NW Indiana Chapter 89 Romance Writers of America's annual Grand Beginnings Contest for unpublished authors. Trained judges will critique the first five pages of a participants manuscript. Entrants need not be RWA members, but submissions must be women's fiction with romantic elements. Entry fee is $20 and we accept electronic submissions as well as hard copy. All entries are critiqued by two judges and will be returned, along with those judges' comments, by April 30th.
The top 5 finalists will be ranked by published author and Wild Rose Press editor, Michelle Witvliet.
For more information and a look at the score sheet, go to our website at www.nwinrwa.org
Joanna Waugh
President
NW Indiana Chapter 89 RWA"

Finally, as promised, the Indiana Writers Consortium Yahoo group is now up and ready for business. If you're interested in joining this group, head over to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Indianawriters
That's enough for one day I think. Happy hunting.
