The WriterGal Network works! Recently I had a project which required sourcing subject matter experts to write for a client of mine. I was looking for people with a very specific skill set and didn't know anyone in my personal network. So I put the word out to the WriterGals, and sure enough one of them connected me with an associate of one of her clients. (What's that -- a professional acquaintance two times removed?!) I followed that lead which lead me to someone all the way across the country who will probably be a perfect fit!
