New E-Course Session: July 30
My next 8-week e-course on breaking into magazines will begin on Monday, July 30, 2007.
This may be the last session I offer this year. Since I’m going away in October, I can’t offer the course in August, September, or October. And I can’t offer it in November when I get back, because who wants to be doing homework over the holidays?
I’m offering students of the July 30 session a free copy of my e-book Editors Unleashed: Magazine editors growl about their writer peeves, which usually sells for $11.95. For this e-book, I interviewed ten (anonymous) editors of national and trade magazines about what writers do that ticks them off. Written in a Q&A format, each chapter includes tips on how to avoid becoming an editor’s nightmare writer. You’ll either laugh your butt off at what other writers do (like the one who gave her editor a chapstick with the writer’s name stuck on it)—or turn red when you realize that you’ve committed some of those same sins. Educational—and entertaining! When you sign up for the July 30 session (Premium or Basic version), I’ll e-mail you your copy of Editors Unleashed.
Previous students of the e-course have landed assignments from Writer’s Digest, Woman’s Day, E: The Environmental Magazine, Cottage Living, Black Health, Pizza Today, MyBusiness, For Me, Michigan Out-Of-Doors,Body & Brain, Rhode Island Home, Living & Design , and other trade, regional, and national magazines.

Is there a deadline for signing up? I’d like to take the course, but need to wait a week or two to see what my schedule will be like. Thanks.
Thanks for writing! As long as you sign up by the day before, you’re fine. I’ve even had people sign up and start late, and while I’m fine with that, it’s not ideal for the student.
I’m so excited to tske this course. I am a published writer but want to expand to National.
