National Association of Freelance Writers Teleclass

www.NAFW.net Announcements: Teleclass Updates

Space is available for the July teleclass, Writing for the Web. Writing for the Web is very different from writing for print; if you are looking to add writing Internet copy to your repertoire, this class is a must. Join us at 8 pm ET for a live, 60 minute web-hosted seminar with plenty of time for questions and answers. Sign up on the site.

Meanwhile, the next teleclass will be Getting Started in Freelance Writing, scheduled for Wednesday, August 20th at 8 pm ET.

For a limited time, all classes will be offered to everyone at the member rate of $24.95 per class (the same low price as membership). You might consider joining the National Association of Freelance Writers and adding this as your paid class with membership.

Beginning a New Writing Project

Writers know this: When a new character starts talking to you, they won't give up until you give in and tell their story. Ariadne (Deedy) Cross told me that she had enrolled in graduate studies, and as a result had received a grant to catalogue a private library. I was excited for her. I was even more excited when she told me where the library was located -- Crete!

Since Deedy has never been far from her home in Pine Mountain, Missouri, she couldn't resist the adventure--and neither could I. But rather than have her story begin at the university, I started it with her arrival in Crete where she meets her new boss, Jason Storonysius (a Chris Hansen look-alike)(Yummy)!

I'm hoping the meter at the left of the page goes up by leaps and bounds. Join me -- better yet -- get your own meter and let me check on your progress as we go along.

Happy Writing, Nita
