Blazing Trailers is having a contest!

Contest #1 - New Authors

For the month of September, we will be having a little contest to see who can refer the most new authors to Blazing Trailers. The three people who refer the most new authors will each get a week on the homepage.

Here are the guidelines for Contest #1:

1. On the online submission form there is now a referral field. It's right below the contact information and is introduced by this line: If one of our authors referred you to Blazing Trailers, please tell us who so we can thank them. Ask your friends and colleagues to join Blazing Trailers and make sure they put your name down in the referral line.

2. Authors may not put their own name in the referral box.

3. Referrals are for new authors only.

4. If a new author posts 6 trailers and mentions Santa Claus in the referral field, this is still only considered 1 referral for Santa Claus.

5. Erotica authors get to play too. The top 2 referring erotica authors will have their trailers featured on the adult site.

6. Winners will be chosen at the end of September and the trailers will be featured for a week in October.

Contest #2 for Readers

One week a month will go to the "Random Act of Blazing Trailers." This will be a random author (one each for the mainstream site and the erotica site) that I choose. To get chosen, I need to see you, using your Blazing Trailers links. I still see so many Blazing Trailers authors using YouTube links. Breaks my heart every time. I can only think that you may have lost sales by using that dead end link.

Here are the guidelines for Contest #2:

In your internet travels, post your link to Blazing Trailers on chats forums and newsletters. I belong to over 40 yahoo groups. I'm a lurker in most, but I'm there. I also get Google alerts for Blazing Trailers. Every time I see an author using his/her BT link I'll add that name to a hat. The more times you use it, the more chances to win. At the end of the month, I'll draw one name.

If you're worried I won't see your promotion, cc to:

http://us.mc578.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=blazingtrailers@yahoogroups.com.This way, we will grow both our readership and author library.

If you have any questions please email me at kimm@blazingtrailers.com

How else do I get my trailer in the coveted "Featured Trailer," you might ask. Eventually, this spot will go up for sale. Right now, the trailers featured in Rick's Picks will be featured. Rick chooses the trailers to review, though. Finally, I have made an agreement with The New Covey Trailer Awards. The trailer that wins the 'Most intriguing trailer' each month will be featured too.

Local Writers Make Room to Run Wild

Running Wild Writers, LLC debuts as Philadelphia’s newest writers’ community with its first Fiction Workshop beginning September 2009. Founded by Philadelphia-based writer Lisa Diane Kastner, Running Wild provides a venue for writers of all forms and all genres to learn and succeed in the craft.

Kastner is a fiction writer, former correspondent for the Philadelphia Theater Review, freelance journalist for the Delaware County Times, Features Editor for the Picolata Review, and President of Pennwriters, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit writers’ organization.

“In my years with the creative writing community, I have repeatedly been asked to provide writers a venue to more thoroughly explore the craft of writing. Running Wild Writers is the answer to that request.”

The inaugural Fiction Workshop will begin September 24 and will run once a week for ten weeks through December 2009. Attendees will have two opportunities to submit up to 5,000 words of original material to be reviewed by participants and to receive a detailed assessment from Kastner.

“What makes Running Wild Writers unique is that we believe all forms and genres are valuable. Most workshops specialize in a specific genre such as literary, thriller, mystery, romance and so forth. At Running Wild, we believe that writers can learn and grow by reading and writing across genres,” said Kastner. “The same is true for form. Writers need to experiment in creative non-fiction, poetry, and fiction writing to hone their skills and discover who they are as writers.”

Workshop Details Running Wild Writers Community will hold a 10-week Fiction Writers Workshop from September 24 – December 3, 2009. The group will meet on Thursdays at 7 PM. Participants will have the opportunity to workshop two pieces, maximum of 5,000 words each, during the sessions. Each work will be given thorough written feedback by the instructor as well as feedback from fellow attendees. In addition, the instructor will select elements of the craft to discuss during the sessions. Craft discussions will be based on the pieces workshopped that evening. Workshops will be held at 1241 Carpenter St., Philadelphia, PA 19147. In the heart of a thriving Philadelphia arts community.

Lisa’s Bio

Lisa Diane Kastner, fiction writer, creative non-fiction explorer, and former journalist writes fiction from Philadelphia and draws inspiration from her local experience. Kastner promises that her flaming red head tendencies will neither detract nor overly add to the commentary. If anything, it will bring a bit of flavor, like cinnamon.A former correspondent for the Philadelphia Theatre Review and Features Editor for the Picolata Review, Kastner currently writes freelance and by invitation in literature and the arts. Her literary interviews include Charles Baxter (Academy of Arts and Letters Award in Literature 1997) and Lee Martin (Pulitzer Prize Nominee 2006). Kastner is the Founder of Running Wild Writers Community, LLC and President of Pennwriters, Inc. (http://www.pennwriters.com/) , a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to assisting the novice to the award winning and multipublished writers to learn and succeed in the craft. She is the founder of the Pennwriters King of Prussia and Philadelphia Critique Groups, and can be found throughout the region leading workshops on business communications, and occasionally performing on the local stage or such theater companies as CelebrationTheater. Her short stories have been published in 63 Channels Journal and The StraightJackets Magazine.

How can you sell books and...

How can you sell books and not yourself?

This is a question that has been troubling me for some time now. New authors. They want to sell a million copies but… they don’t want to “communicate” in order to do that.

Why?In retrospect, let me say this. I’m a shy person, typically, around people I don’t know. So when I ventured into the “publishing” world, a green horn (aren’t we all?), I was like (as the kids now say) “Oh my gosh, I gotta do what?”

Keep in mind, folks, I’m over that “50″ hill mark now. But I still see “me” in the mirror as being “16″ going on “21″. Following me so far? All my fears of “staying underground to keep outta trouble” had to be conquered (okay, I was just a tad bit rebellious). And… if you want to write, publish and actually sell the durned things, you have to as well!

I get these kinds of responses all the time when talking to “new authors” about how to promote their books:

“I want to sell books, but I don’t want to give out my email address.”

“Do I really need a website?”

“Why don’t they read my book and see that I’m the greatest author that ever crossed their email inbox?” (not really – but it is what the person meant)

I’m not kidding here. I’ve actually heard these and more!

If you want to write, then publish, then have a zillion people actually read it and thus, make you rich (which I’m pretty sure is your main objective)… then you are in for a rude awakening.

But don’t give up if writing and publishing really is in “your blood” and don’t cry when someone says “…you call yourself a writer?” Because you might hear that or worse!

The true satisfication in ANY endeavor, whether it works out for you or not, is that you can go to sleep at night and say “I did my best” and be happy with that!

After all, if your book doesn’t sell, you can at least say “I wrote a book” instead of “I could write a book” because hey… we can all “could” all we want, but can we at least try to ”do it?”

In summary, if you want to sell books, whether you are a big name or not, you have to work hard at promoting it AND you! How can you sell a book if no one knows about you or your book?

Unless you’ve lucked into a traditional, well known publishing company, have an agent and maybe a public relations associate working for you as well, it’s not going to happen unless you MAKE it happen.

Browse well known author websites. Check out their site structure, what types of books they write that sell well, and what they are doing to promote their books.

Read interviews of well known authors. There you will learn what kinds of questions you might be asked if ever interviewed and you can learn a lot from the author’s answers.

Research publishers before submitting and prepare for rejections. Keep in mind that while it is true that it’s easier to get into a good publishing company if you have an agent, that it is also more difficult to convince an agent you have a worthwhile project than convincing a publisher.

So get out there and sell yourself and your book! And don’t be shy! When your famous you can “hide out” from the public but until then, make your presence known!

The Dreaded Comma Dilemma...

I’ve dubbed this topic “the dreaded comma dilemma” from my experience while working for a daily newspaper. Trust me; I was confused at first as well. The late Kay White Miles was the publisher for many years and a close friend. She often had the final say in an article prior to publishing and thus, the “dilemma” begins. Leave it in or take it out?

We had a reporter who consistently put commas in everywhere. And Kay, inevitably, would mark her article to take out most of the commas. Thus the office joke - “the dreaded comma dilemma”.

When I attended school, we were taught to use a comma before the word “and”. However, I was taught at the newspaper that the “and” actually replaces the comma, thus the comma is not needed. I’ve found visual aids are often better when explaining something. Here’s an example:

The box contained some thread, needles, straight pins, and scissors.

The box contained some thread, needles, straight pins and scissors.

Technically, both are acceptable. However, if I were to edit your writing I would remove the comma before the “and”.

You can also use a comma to break up a sentence or indicate a “pause”. But be careful not to have a run-on sentence with too many commas. And keep in mind that a semi-colon might be the correct way to go. We’ll get into that in a minute. Here’s an example of using a comma to break up a sentence:

She climbed the stairs to the second floor and entered the room where she had last seen it, and wished there were an easier way to find it.

Notice I’ve left the comma in before the last “and”. This is not a sentence using description as the sample above. It’s a long sentence with more than one “and” so therefore, the comma before the last “and” is acceptable and helps to break up the sentence.

On to the subject of using a comma before the word “but”. This one is often a toughie for writers and better explained with another example for visual aid. You do not always put a comma before the word “but”.

What else could she do but give in?

There is another way you could get that to them sooner, but you’ll have to drive there instead.

When editing someone’s writing, I often run across improperly placed commas and semi-colons. When do you use the comma and when do you use a semi-colon instead? Commas are used between words in sentences where the remainder of the sentence is not a sentence, whereas semi-colons are used in place of a comma if the remainder of the sentence can be considered a sentence. So here’s another “visual aid” to help you understand better:

“Yes, he invited me to go, but I turned him down.”

“Yes, he invited me to go; I turned him down.”

Next time, providing I don’t forget again (LOL), we’ll discuss thesauruses.

Award-Winning Author to share promotion tips on free podcast...

The FAQs Podcasts feature informative interviews with industry professionals in the business of writing, marketing, and the creation of online media who will help writers create a top-notch product and help them reach their target audience.

The two writers will do what both do best, that is give their listeners lots of tips and ideas based on their professional experience and practical approaches based on practical experience promoting their own books.

Howard-Johnson instructs at UCLA Extension's world renown Writers' Program. Her first novel, This Is the Place, won eight awards. Her second book, Harkening: A Collection of Stories Remembered, creative nonfiction, won three. She is also an award-winning poet. Her how-to book for writers, The Frugal Book Promoter: How to Do What Your Publisher Won't is recommended reading for her classes, was named USA Book News' "Best Professional Book" and is an Irwin Award winner.

She is the recipient of both the California Legislature's Woman of the Year in Arts and Entertainment Award and the Glendale American Business Women's Association's Woman of the Year award. Her community's Character and Ethics Committee honored her for promoting tolerance with her writing. She was also named to Pasadena Weekly's list of 14 "San Gabriel Valley women who make life happen." She is a popular speaker and actor.
