Lately my RSS feed has been overflowing with so many posts that I can scarcely keep up. So today I thought I'd share of the best posts from the past week. Enjoy!
- Are you a freelance writer or a journalist entrepreneur?: In this thought-provoking post, Michelle Rafter asks readers what's in a name? It's more a timely discussion of a topic I brought up on my this blog last year.
- The internet has created a new generation of great writers: I'm sick of hearing how Gen Yers can't write, and in this post Penelope Trunk eloquently disputes that myth, showing how the web and social networking have actually improved writing skills.
- The Writer's Best Friend? The Delete Key: In this post, NYT bestselling author Allison Winn Scotch explains why good writers are ruthless self-editors.
- DIY Publishing: What's Worth Paying For?: Maria Schneider helps writers decide where to spend their money on self-publishing (hint: it's not where publishers tell you to spend it).
- How to Be the Cool Kid (Even if You Weren't One in High School): With his usual dose of wit and humor, James Chartrand tells bloggers that the secret to being cool is not trying so hard (among other things).
