USING SOCIAL NETWORKING TO CREATE A PLATFORM:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m not expert on this, but my friend Jill Murray (www.jillmurray.com<\/a>) is. She’s a Montreal author of young adult fiction, and is super-tech-savvy. She recently gave a talk on how to build a web presence through social networking, and posted her slides on her website. I found the advice there really good. Check it out here.<\/a> You can find a link to Jill Murray’s website at the right margin as well.<\/p>\n

GRANTS:<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you could use some tips on grant writing, check out Mira’s List<\/a>. It’s a great blog where Mira Bartok gathers and disseminates grant announcements. I’ve subscribed to her email list, and have received a grant as a result of a listing I found there. You can also get to Mira’s List via the link under Grants at the right margin.<\/p>\n

SUBMISSION IDEAS:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Though she doesn’t update very often any more, Sarah Wagner Yost’s blog<\/a> archives give some good ideas as to where to submit personal essays and travel writing. She recommends trying The Smart Set and Modern Love (NYT) for starters. She provides editors’ email addresses and submission guidelines.<\/p>\n
