Postcard Writing

One of my writing tips is to carry postcards (you can find them free around town, advertising galleries and such), or index cards, if you're in a pinch. They're informal, they offer limited space (almost unheard of in our age of the infinite blank page of word processing systems), they encourage you to write to a specific audience (though you don't have to mail the card), sometimes the picture serves as a writing prompt, and they're light and, as I said before, often free or inexpensive.

And now there's a cool-looking book and contest related to this idea! (Sadly, I had nothing to do with either.)

Come see us!


We'll be at the Multnomah County Library's Writers Resource Faire this Sunday, March 16th. Stop in to meet us, say hi, or buy a copy of the Ink-Filled Page 2007 anthology. If you have questions about editing, writing, or publishing, this is the perfect time to get them answered and make some great contacts in the publishing field. You'll see plenty of great books you can't live without too!
