Words of Wisdom from the Gals

Posted on by WriterGal Network

With years of experience as communications professionals, the WriterGals have tips to share.

What’s a secret to writing well? What’s a great way to pitch an article?

Find answers to these questions and more below!

What’s a secret to writing well?
"Move your lips when reading something you’ve written. Mumble and proclaim as you write. Fill the room with the sounds of your words. Really excellent writing has a rhythm to it that our ears can hear and our eyes can miss." Tip from Kathleen Dexter

What's a great way to pitch an article? "Pitching media is almost all done by email these days, so writing well is more important than ever. Make the most of your (short) subject line, craft an attention- grabbing opening paragraph and really know the media you’re addressing." Tip from Kim Weiss

Learn more about Kim Weiss, a publicist and public relations expert for companies, products, organizations, artists and authors

What are your best tips for time management? "Get up early and get any time-wasting stuff out of the way before the workday begins. Prioritize income-generating work on weekdays and do non-income-generating tasks in the evenings or on weekends." Tip from Sam Molineaux

Learn more about Sam Molineaux of Services Grammatica, a full-service editorial agency

Besides doing great work, how can you keep a client? "Meet your deadlines! If you anticipate having a problem meeting a deadline, be sure to communicate with your client as soon as possible." Tip from Emily Van Cleve
