Blog Detail
Writing Mommies
http://writingmommies.blogspot.com
The idea for this blog was formulated after many conversations between myself and the other authors, Loretta Snyder and Alyssa Ast--who are also freelancing moms. Our plan is to include job leads, tips, anecdotes from the writing life, and essentially any and everything related to it.
So, when we hear a tip about a paying gig, we'll pass it along. If we have some freelance writing tips or advice that we think you could use, we'll throw it out there. We'll share article links, blogs of note, the occasional personal stories or thoughts on writing, the business and the creative.
We will feature guest bloggers, author interviews, and more. This will be a one-stop writing resource for beginning freelance writers. As we grow in our careers, the blog will grow with us.
And, for the record, we're open to advice from our readers! So, feel free to shoot me (or any of the other writers) an email or comment directly on the blog. Let us know your thoughts, feelings, or what sort of content you'd like to see here. Tell us what YOU think!
