I've already blogged about the amazing blog from agent Rachelle Gardner. You'll miss a lot if you don't read her daily. Happily, there's an additional resource connected with her agency, Wordserve Literary. More than forty of Wordserve's clients have joined forces to create a group blog (or Glog), called the Wordserve Water Cooler. It's focused on building a community for writers, and sharing their knowledge of the publishing process.
The blog is only a week old, but already writers can find some great topics covered. Things like:
Tips for Landing an Agent- twenty-nine authors share their advice.
Preparing for an Interview- how to relax and have fun.
How to Find the Perfect Publisher- two things to do, and one thing to avoid.
Becoming a Nationally Syndicated Columnist- how it can help with book sales.
Up a Creek Without a Paddle- advice on the marketing game.
A Time for Every Purpose- Dealing with time management.
This is definitely a blog to put in your reader. What a wonderful way for these authors to give back. If you'd like to see who they are, check the list of contributors.
When you're published, how would you like to give back?
Wow. I follow Rachelle's site, but missed this agency resource. I'll take a look. I probably need to hit the last link on time management first. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty new, but I think it'll get quite a bit more publicity as it gains traction.

ReplyDeleteWe're having a lot of over at the Water Cooler, Debbie. Thanks for highlighting the blog!

I saw this on Rachelle's site and subscribed right away. Some great posts on both sites. Nothing like getting the inside scoop!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. Pretty soon I'll have to give up writing to follow blogs full-time!
