New Writer's Blog

Three successful freelance writers (who also happen to be Mommies) announce the inception of a new writing blog called "Writing Mommies." It's not JUST for Mommies--it's for the entire freelance community, with a special emphasis on beginners. Come check it out at:

writingmommies.blogspot.com

The idea for this blog was formulated after many conversations between Angela Atkinson, Loretta Snyder and Alyssa Ast--who are all 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!

We are looking for new followers and subscribers--and we will return the favor.

Very nice start you guys!

(ok - gals)

But methinks you need a LOT more - as a first page, opener, it is a nice beginning, but to keep people coming back you will need a lot more on there.

So please - enlighten us all - I think you've started in the right direction and I'd like to see a LOT more stuff.

Much luck to you trio - and hopefully we'll see a LOT more interaction with you guys!

  Thanks WW! We definitely have a lot of work to do. We've just started it, and we've got big plans and dreams that will help us follow through. We've got a schedule so that we will have fresh content nearly every day, so that's a start! Thanks so much for checking it out!
