This book covers unique writing genres that most people never consider, including writing book reviews, quizzes, eulogies, greeting cards, step-by-steps and lists. The book contains a check-list of decision-based questions and reality-check questions for each genre and also practical, hands-on writing exercises.
This is a writing book that is not only concerned with specific genres that not many people try, but also with the writing life in its totality...a life the author lives everyday.
Each genre has an exercise that accompanies it and provides practical answers on how to get started, how much money one can earn and how to submit work.
As always, Sandra is available for direct consultation either through e-mail or traditional mail (with an SASE provided). She gives her address at the end of the book and invites readers to contact her with questions or comments.
Her first book on writing greeting cards is now in its 4th printing. Sandra has helped many people sell their writing work and many people attribute their first writing paycheck to Sandra's direction and advice.
"A Few Choice Words: Short "Do-Able" Writing That Sells" is no different in its approach, focus and goals for writing. You will not be disappointed if you order this book. E-mail Sandra (FelshamLdy(at)aol.com) for details in ordering).
Excerpt
"Everyone loves a quiz. More to the point, editors love quizzes. Out of all the genres I've written and been published in, I have the highest successful sales rate with quizzes. I can't write them fast enough for most editors and if I chose to, could build an entire second writing career on quizzes alone."
