Help Absolute Write

When wanna-be writers ask me about writing and how to become a writer, the first place I send them to is AbsoluteWrite (AW). AW’s ISP took down the site with only one hour’s notice. Writers and fans everywhere couldn’t access the forums or any of its information. All because of one woman who took her problem to AW’s ISP.

AW’s community pulled together and started a variety of activities to help AW. I was delighted to see BoingBoing report on this.

AbsoluteWrite’s Mom, Jenna Glatzer, wrote two books that I strongly recommend. Items ordered through these links will go to AbsoluteWrite, not meryl.net. I recommend her others, but these are tops..

* The Street Smart Writer: Self Defense Against Sharks and Scams in the Writing World

* Make a Real Living as a Freelance Writer: How to Win Top Writing Assignments
