Get famous: Fab Freelance Writing Ezine

The article in this week's Fab Freelance writing ezine, "Promote Your Writing: Get Famous Online (And Offline)", shows you how to get build your name as a writer.

Here's an excerpt:

Fame is money for a freelance writer, just as it is for anyone else involved in the arts. Celebrities hire staffs just to ensure that their names stay in the headlines and their faces appear on magazine covers. They'll do just about anything to get noticed, no matter how humiliating the attention happens to be - humiliating for a "normal" person, that is, not for an attention-grabbing celebrity.

No, I'm not suggesting that you perpetrate a stunt that will get you into the headlines, although it couldn't hurt. I am suggesting that you take promotion seriously, because 99 out of 100 writers don't. This is why 95 per cent of writers never make more than $5000 a year.
