We’re in Wisconsin this week! We’ve spent tons of time with Richard’s relatives and childhood friends (yes, they really do talk funny), gone to the State Fair (it was so hot!), visited the Mars Cheese Castle, and been to a fish fry!
We’ve been faithfully logging our experiences (and photos!) here:

With all the eating we’ve been doing, it’s a wonder we haven’t had to stop and buy some bigger vacation clothes…
Hi Angela, I just wanted to say a big thank you for posting the link to support our soldiers. As the mother of a daughter with 13 years active duty I can not express how much our kids need to know they have support at home when they are deployed.
Thank you,
Sandra
Hi Angela,
Kinda new at freelance. I have sold a few articles, and now wish to build a web page, rather than e-mail clips with queries. Once an article is sold to a publication, can the author of the article post a clip of the article on the author’s web page? Is the entire article necessary? Do you think a web page for editors to visit is a good idea?
Any advice you can give would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Jerry
“You know what I should write?” I asked my husband one evening early in 2006 while lamenting the direction of my freelancing career.
He looked over and just raised his eyebrows, a sign that he wished I’d make up my mind about where my career was headed, too.
“Careers in women’s studies. Maybe 101 Careers in Women’s Studies.”

We’re once again back on the road in our RV, exploring the backroads (and toll roads) of this fine country! And, after our Jet Blue nightmare last month, being back in our RV is heaven!
We’ve been to a beach town in Massachusetts and tubing in upstate New York…and we haven’t had any accidents, blow-outs, or emergency room trips! Yea!!
Letters will return next week.
I was thrilled when my publisher asked me to write a coffee table book about hummingbirds. As an avid bird watcher who had traveled to South America to see and photograph hummingbirds, it was an opportunity to write about one of my passions. The caveat? A “work made for hire” contract. Of course, this type of contract is not unusual for coffee table books, which tend to sell fewer copies than the average title. I wanted very much to write the book, and they would pay me extra for some of my photos. So, I signed the contract. That was in 2002…
Hi Angela,
In your book, Profitable Email Publishing, you said you use egroups to manage your subscriber list. When I go to egroups.com, it reroutes me to Yahoo Groups. Is this what you use to manage your WritersWeekly subscribers?
“Mom, I’m going to die,” I whispered faintly to my Mother.
“No, you aren’t!” She encouraged.
As I lay on my death bed at close to 300 pounds, with heaps of health problems, having surgery after surgery, I thought I would die…
