Write Life Guide

W00t! Write Life Guide has just been launched by the Bayanihan Blog Network. WLG is a blogsite for Philippine-based freelance writers. But you might find some of the posts useful to you even if you're based elsewhere.

Please drop by the site and leave comments / suggestions. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Win a Free 10-week Writing Workshop

If you're up for a writing challenge shortly before 2008 comes in, join the What's the Buzz(word)? contest. Create a buzzword that you think might emerge in 2008 and give a brief definition of the word and a sample sentence using the word. Entries are limited to no more than 100 words for the buzzword, definition, and sample sentence.

If you're lucky, your entry will be published in the Spring 2008 brochure and posted online at WritingClasses.com. What more? You will also receive a free 10-week Writing Workshop.

You better hurry, though. Contest deadline is December 30!

Make a great writing year!

Still Here

Sorry for the long absence. I've been on complete bed rest since July for my pregnancy. I'll be giving birth in about 2 weeks, and I hope to resume blogging in November.

Keep writing, y'all!
