Editor's Note - Revised July 2009

Have a great summer from all of us at Scribe & Quill!

Last year, 2008, was full of changes on both personal and professional levels. On a personal level, I got married in August. On a professional level, I stayed busy with a myriad of writing and editing jobs. The end of 2008, I added the title of writing coach to my resume. This coming year I plan to keep the momentum going on all fronts.

In June 2009, my fourth book, Hidden Fire, was released by Whiskey Creek Press. I've continued to write articles, edit manuscripts and coach writers. Many fascinating opportunities are on the horizon, and I plan to stay busy. But my heart, soul and roots remain planted firmly in Scribe & Quill. They always will!

As you already know, Scribe & Quill no longer publishes monthly. Because of my work schedule and other obligations, I decided to publish the newsletter four times a year, rather than twelve. It's possible that, in the future, the newsletter may go monthly again, but I don't foresee it at this time. However, Scribe & Quill will continue publication through 2009 and beyond--just as it has (in some form or another) since 1997. I can't believe we're going into our 12th year of publication! That's a mind-blower for sure!

As an addition to our services for the new year, my husband, who is a professional videographer and video editor, is offering his book promo video services to authors of all genres. For a limited time, Scribe & Quill readers/subscribers will receive a discounted rate. Most authors can't afford to sink $500 or more into a single book video promo, which is why my husband decided to launch Paul's Promos, a book video design service that offers an affordable alternative for those of us who have limited funds, but who still want and need a quality book promo. To receive a quote, e-mail Paul at paulspromos@gmail.com or visit his Better Book Videos website to view samples of book videos he's already created.

Scribe & Quill's 2009 issues will be linked on the home page as well as available at our Zinester page. For previous issues, visit our Archives section. Our quarterly issues for 2009 will be Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. The Web site is always under revision, so be sure to clear your cache and refresh your browser each time you visit.

Please note the ONLY official address for the original Scribe & Quill is: http://www.scribequill.net The .com site is no longer associated with the original Scribe & Quill. It was yanked out from beneath us and now some person or company I don't even know owns the domain. So if you see anything going on over at the .com site, it's not the original Scribe & Quill and I have nothing to do with that domain.
