Incredibly Inspiring

I'm a freelance journalist who's been writing for 10 years. I borrowed this book from the library when I'd hit a bit of a slump. I ended up reading the book cover to cover, but in multiple short sittings (it's hard to stay still and read when you suddenly have all these ideas for articles!). I re-borrowed the book several times over the next six months (just to see if I'd get bored with it as I often do with how-to books).I finally bought a copy. I flip through it in the mornings with my coffee to get the juices flowing. Emerson's tone is conversational and loaded with practical advice. She doesn't fill her copy with grand promises and dollar signs. What you sell depends on what you write. But if you enjoy writing, even as a recreational exercise (scrapbooks, websites), this book will help you push limits you didn't realise you'd set yourself.Business is up like you wouldn't believe.'Nuff said.

Connie's right on with this one!

I've used Connie's ideas to build a career. Editors LOVE short articles. This book shows you how to write them and gives you lots of ideas on where to send them.
