Preparing for Departure

Posted on by

For anyone who has read these posts, you know I am a big proponent of networking. Whether the networking is done in person at a meeting or convention or via social media you can never know too many people. I’ve been doing a LOT of networking via Facebook and Twitter for the past couple years. That activity increased even more when I started podcasting myself. Over this time I have made several friends in the social media. The one downside to interacting with people via Twitter and Facebook is, unless they live nearby, you are unlikely to ever meet them. That is what has me so excited. Next week on May 27th I will be attending Balticon. Balticon is a […]

The Quest for Publishing Credits

Posted on by

I have heard (and read) for as long as I’ve been paying attention that publishing credits are important, especially for the fledgling writer. Now this might sound like a catch-22. You know the one: we can’t hire you for the job because you don’t have enough experience, but you can’t get experience without the job? Yes, it most certainly feels like that to me too. But why do editors and publishers and agents care if you have any publishing credits? Essentially (and this is based on what I have been told by editors, and publishers) publishing credits mean that someone has read your stuff and has considered it to be of a high enough quality to print.
