Lorraine Schein commented on the group 'Funny Women'
"How to send humor pieces to major magazines like Self? They often don't have the editorsial office phone number, so I wouldn't be able to call and find out which editor to send it to. It might just be ignored. And email addresses are not…"

Lorraine Schein replied to the discussion 'What happens when you revise?'
"I think it's a flow state, intense concentration so time stops. I sometimes revise in bed. I think about it all day."
Lorraine Schein commented on the blog post 'Need more women publishers'
"I like this idea, but lack the money or connections too. I know a lot of great women writers who simply don't get the exposure men do. Any one out there with money or connections?

Funny Women
I want to encourage women to submit to humor venues. I urge you; I implore you. Let’s start a revolution and change the world’s mind about who’s funny. Your heart will swell with accomplishment and your breasts will become larger. This I promise.

Need more women publishers
We need more women in charge of publishing houses and women's presses. I may be a dinosaur, but in the 60s, many women's presses were formed and they published lots of great women writers. Now few of them exist, due to lack of money. As this Best of...series shows, feminism has proved to not be enough to get the reins of publishing in the hands of women. So it is time to reinvent the wheel and form our own companies again.
