What a gret idea

Wow, I have learned so much from people who run successful businesses these last few weeks. These are people who not only blog to share useful information but also run their business using their blog. One in particular has had a huge influence on me. One thing he does is give gifts to his blog subscribers. So I decided that I am going to do what these people do and offer you gifts for your loyalty to my blog. So here is the deal: 1. Every person who is subscribed to my Blog will receive a pro…

What about "Il changeait la vie"?

"Don't worry, this blog is in English but last night this song by Jean-Jacques Goldman got me thinking. I think it will make you think too. I think you'll see how this can help not only your writing but your perspective as well. The story in the song is a few different people who were ordinary but became extra-ordinary by changing the way people looked at things. Goldman presents this thought in a super clever way. The title of the song is Il Changeait la vie which loosely translated means "He…

what is a helpful blog

Today I planned to tell you about a couple of blogs/websites I visit regularly and how they help me as the owner of a writing business. I will still do that but first, I'd like us to talk about what makes a blog worth visiting. Because that is the most important step of this process.

I'd have to say first is regular new content.

We live in a microwave culture. We crave new information. Why else would we check email 17 times a day at work…

Reaching more people with your blog

Today's blog has information I am super excited about sharing. These are things that I've been testing to help increase traffic to my blog. Now that the results are in I'm ready to help you drive more traffic to your site too. First, why do you have a blog?

Do you use it to keep in touch with family and friends? That is the case with many people who have blogs on adoption. When we were in the process of adopting our daughter 3 years ago many people talked about their blogs. At the tim…

Submitting your project

So you've done it. You've completed your first project. Now you need to sell it. Whether a book, article, column, or concept-you need to know how to sell it. Depending on your project the way to sell it will be different. For articles you want to pick up a Market Writing Guide. For people in the CBA I have Sally Stuart's guide available to the right of my blog. It is a MUST HAVE resource for CBA writers. Most places will want a query letter. You can find many resources for query letters or…

I'm still working on what I want my writing to be, but I'm hoping a month of blog posts will wake me up!

At 6:33am on October 24th, 2007, Amy in KC said…: Tiffany - thanks for being my friend (I'm no good at the networking part of this thing, I'm afraid). My blog is really my first stab at organizing my writing, my thoughts, etc. I have been so busy at work and at home that I haven't really pursued any novel writing. I have so many ideas - some stories, some "enjoying your twins" - I hope to check your site out soon.
