THE NEW! SHE WRITES BLOG

It takes a village to be a successful writer these days. With publishing houses struggling to provide authors with the support they need, the burden to do the thousand and one things it takes to make it (in addition to, you know, writing) now falls on us. But in true She Writes spirit, we need not be alone.…

The Techie: Let's Get This Conversation Started

On the heels of the Tools of Change conference, and on the eve of SXSWi, we're being swamped with news and opinions about the future of publishing. There's less fear in the air, but still the amount of information to absorb regarding topics like digital publishing and online st…

Oh Writers They Do Get Weary . . . of the query

Want to make a writer shudder? Ask them if they’ve queried yet. Today I led a workshop on The Great American Query Letter and the participants shuffled in with the reluctance (not to say dread) of women about to try on bathing suits in an open-corral fitting room.

Last Week's Five Questions:

She Writes members novelist Heidi Durrow and poet Tara Betts sit down to discuss Durrow's first novel The Girl Who Fell From The Sky, published this month by Algonquin.

Yay, Nicole! I'm trying to remember if that was one of the ones I applied to or not. Did Wally Lamb go there? If it's the same place, someone I know also went there and she described it to me as having been "a pink cloud experience." I'm sure it wil…
