You Can Be A Winning Writer
A professional author shares the keys to success—from first draft to first printing and beyond—in this complete writer’s guide. For more than a decade, author Joan Gelfand has taught writers of all levels and disciplines how to find creative writing success using her unique 4 C’s approach that combines Craft, Commitment, Community and Confidence. In You Can Be a Winning Writer, Gelfand explains the 4 C’s with humor, empathy, and real-life anecdotes from famous, working, and emerging authors. The 4 C’s provide solid tips on mastering your craft, connecting with a literary community, and building your fan base. But the essential component to all of this is confidence. Gelfand knows that a lack of confidence has kept too many writers unpublished for too long. With the help of Renate Stendhal, PhD, Joan defines clear steps to overcoming the lack-of-confidence demon that haunts so many aspiring authors. This literary reference and publishing guide includes: Key authorship and publishing tips Important post-publication strategies Guidance on avoiding common mistakes How to enjoy greater success with the 4 C’s

Though privileged to live in times when space exploration and technology have advanced our knowledge of the universe at breath-taking speed, we still live as if we are the ones around whom the sun rises and sets.

Writing after Retirement provides a variety of vantage points from published authors a...
Interweavings
These forty-three beautiful and moving short essays seem inspired by whatever is on Carol Smallwood’s mind — library visits, her daughter, the TV show Columbo, “Chick Lit,” or hardware stores. But they remind us that everything in life is a variation on a theme, a different shade in the same tapestry.

Her girls want a daddy—she wants her old life back—all he wants is the three of them. After Giselle Granger’s husband dies in a tragic accident, she’s left with their two young daughters, and struggling for the strength to live in a world without him. When Jackson Broussard loses his wife in the same accident, he finds himself free of the woman whose lies and manipulations have made his marriage and life a living hell. He feels bound to the past by his desire to do right by his friend’s widow and children, even though Giselle makes it clear she doesn’t want his help. Can the two former co-workers forget their differences in order to construct a new future together? Or will they be left with nothing more than a last first kiss and two broken hearts?
