Most Retweeted Tweets
Crowdsourcing tips from my Twitter stream -- these are some of the most retweeted (so they must be good, right?) If you want an explanation or elaboration, tell me in your comment.
Flaws. Fiction: rotten writing, no story. Nonfiction: rotten writing, no logic.
Even if you think you write only novels, you *must* be able to write nonfiction shorts: for promotion.
I left out blog posts and tweets in my list of nonf. items all must be able to write. Don't waste fic on blog
Most any pub that pays well and on acceptance is a "good market" to me.
Absolutely don't put anything on a blog that you intent or may want to sell some day. Blogged IS published. *
My point is that you make ALL work you display to others, the best you can produce Emails too.
Can we offer amnesty? Moratorium on judging by typo? * [in Twitter chats]
You never comment on others' blogs, on forums? Excellent places to show you write well.
No query needed for SS. Just be sure pub takes unsolicited submissions.
Don't confuse feedback for a critique. Know differences between amateurs, readers and professionals.
It's good to consider the source of the slings and arrows that fly about Twitter chats! *

loving this post, now where have I heard this before? Oh right twitter... PS thanks for the lovely book, it's excellent
At any rate you've got another award, it's waiting for you on my blog.
Glad you liked the book, Rebecca -- you won it fair and square! And thank you for the kudos. Rebecca linked to AWE wrote:

I'm so happy when someone tells me I helped them. You're all my friends, my family. No, really!
