"Because we have our own Network of Writers(www.writers-editors.com), I would go there first to find awriter -- either by posting a notice on the Member BulletinBoard, or doing a search of our Writer Data Bank, or looking inour Guide to CNW Writers.
I'm a publications staff of one--I do all the planning andproduction myself. I do use an outside proofing service calledEditorial Services based in Washington DC.

"I've only used AP style in my various positions -- seems themost easily accessible and widely used of all."
Lori Widmer -
Sometimes, writers just find me via the Web or they were aprevious member of NaSPA and now want to get involved with itagain by writing.

-- Question # Four - How do you deal with the stress of yourkind of work in particular? --
C. Hope Clark -
Dana Cassell -
Our sales staff also points me to people who may be able towrite, as they talk with people in the IT industry, too."
"I get the majority of articles via an email with the editorialcalendar to authors who have previously written for ComputerBits. New authors find us either via word of mouth or on theInternet and contact me with their proposals."
I also exercise every morning which makes the rest of my dayfeel better and makes me more efficient."
Lori Widmer, freelance editor, writer and former editor of Risk& Insurance magazine -
""Just Ask" is my mantra. If you have a question and don't knowthe answer, reliable resources are more likely to help youbefore you can do it on your own.
The biggest stress I face is when I can't deliver a product(i.e., newsletter) to my membership on time. That's happenedonly twice in 3 1/2 years with a weekly newsletter. Other thanthat, my stress is limited."
"In general they are IT magazines and sometimes the Internet. Ifind great writers by attending shows and conferences and askingpeople to write.
"My favorite resource for finding writers and freelancers arepersonal recommendations, whether it be someone I've worked within the past and know to [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin[/url] be a strong contributor, or referralsfrom industry peers whose work I respect."
Our publication is a 129-year-old, weekly trade magazine with apaid circulation, a rarity, and many freelancers are accustomedto writing for "controlled" circulation trade publications,which typically have a more relaxed editorial ethic andgenerally serve advertisers more than readers.
"Email! My gawd, it's changed [url=http://www.sidegemeinde.com/peutereyoutlet.php]peuterey sito ufficiale[/url] my life. Folks who would normallyavoid the phone usually respond much faster to an email (ifthey're going to respond at all, that is).

C. Hope Clark, editor, FundsforWriters -
"I control my schedule. I rarely get stressed in relation to mywork because I love it [url=http://www.tagverts.com/barbour.php]barbour online shop[/url] so much.
Look for Part Two Here at GoArticles.
-- Question # Five - What are your favorite time savers? --
"How do I deal with stress? Editing can be stressful, as thereis always a deadline. To alleviate stress, I try to take a lunchbreak where I just sit in the car, read a book, or get out andwalk."
"Don't be afraid to delegate to people. When people ask if youneed help with anything, say yes, and give them a project to do."
-- Question # One - Editors, how do you find writers? --
Tudor Hampton, associate editor, McGraw-Hill's EngineeringNews-Record [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] -
Mechanically speaking, writers should be familiar with allmainstream styles but not get too hung up on them. Telling agood story is paramount."

Dana Cassell -
-- Question # Three - What style manuals do you use andrecommend and why? --
Communities--I like participating in either email writing groupsor local ones, though I've not had much time until now foreither. I also plan to join the Chamber of Commerce and schmoozethat way.
For instance, yesterday a fellow freelancer let me know that aformer boss of mine had offered her a story she's not able todo. I sent him a quick email "Hey, how are you--need anything?"and scored an easy assignment.
Tudor Hampton -
"My situation is unique to associations: our audience and ourcontributors are mostly members. I use very few freelancers.
"Take short breaks, preferably outside and try to [url=http://www.fibmilano.it]woolrich outlet[/url] stretch anddrink water every hour."
Oddly, if I'm busy, it calms me down. I finish one project whilefarming out for two or three others. I keep in contact with mycontacts in my part of the industry.
Tiffany Owens, managing editor Corporate Logo magazinewww.corporatelogo.com -
"I prefer the AP Stylebook because it is easier to use. I alsofrequently refer to "One Word, Two Words, Hyphenated?" By MaryLouise Gilman."
Depending on the industry you write for, you should also havethe APA style or the AMA style down pat, as well. I don't, butthat's next on my list."
Web sites--About.com's freelance [writer] group,creativemoonlighter.com, mediabistro.com, journalismjobs.com (dowe see a pattern here?), Salon.com, NYTimes.com, prnmedia.com,businesswire.com, writerswrite.com"
"By being in constant [url=http://www.par5club.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] motion. If I'm idle, then I notice thestress.
C. Hope Clark -
"Strange as it may sound, it is very difficult for us to findfreelancers who clearly understand what readers are looking forin a publication. For us, it is important to find writers whounderstand the difference between writing news-driven ratherthan marketing-driven copy.
"Writer's Market Online; About Romance, Gila."
Page Four
Jenny Kasza -
"Skipping house work, [url=http://www.thehygienerevolution.com/hollister.php]hollister france[/url] skipping cooking dinner, and neverwatching television. My work is from home, and that's where Igather my free time.
"Regarding style, we should let the academics debate the rules.In the professional world, good style is something not found inany manual, although every writer should own a worn-out copy ofStrunk and White's The Elements of Style.
Part One
"I have several utility software programs that save time [url=http://www.agentparadise.com]woolrich sito ufficiale[/url] withcopying, pasting in frequently used text and passwords, filing,remembering, and backing up -- such as ClipMate, TypeItIn,Second Copy -- all of which I would not like to be without."
That said, we look to find quality news-savvy stringers who arenot heavily involved with competitive publications. Thechallenge herein lies in a freelancer's ability and quickness tobecome familiar enough with our readers, the tone of our work,and respond accordingly.
Jenny Kasza, editor, NASPA Technical Support -
If none of these located a writer or editor who could do exactlywhat I needed, then I would likely do a search on Google for thesubject or skill (copywriter, brochures, direct mail,ghostwriter) and something like "freelance writer" -- searchingfor those writers who have their own websites.
Page Eight
Page Six
Journalistic associations can be a good source for locatingquality freelancers, but generally speaking, I have found goodpeople through [url=http://www.diecastlinks.co.uk]hollister outlet[/url] mere luck as well as trial and error."
"I think the stress of impending deadlines stimulates both thecreative side of the brain and the drive to get at it. Withoutthe stress of those deadlines, I don't think we would get nearlyas much accomplished, so it's not necessarily a [url=http://www.diecastlinks.co.uk]hollister uk[/url] bad thing."
"Chicago Manual of Style; The Elements of Style (Strunk andWhite); The Elements of Editing (Arthur Plotnik)."
Teresa [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister outlet sale[/url] Acosta, editor & publisher, The Romance Ragwww.romancerag.com -
"Books--The Well-Fed Writer, Harbrace College Handbook, AP StyleGuide, The Synonym Finder (better than Roget's Thesaurus, Ithink).
I would recommend that every writer have a working knowledge (orthe appropriate manual sitting on his/her desk) of both AP andChicago styles.
I have few I rely on all the time since I like to keep my workfresh and innovative. I believe in professional lists onlinefrom which I glean a massive amount of information. It's liketapping into experts via a daily digest mode.
Lori Widmer -
"I consult with my AP Stylebook."
"AP Style Guide--absolute must for some of the publications Iwrite for.
Answers to questions about the writing life - and work - fromyour peers - almost entirely unedited but for formatting and[corrections].
Oh, and I fish. Nothing soothes [url=http://www.marrakech-hotel.fr]hollister france[/url] the nerves and brings you backdown into the earth better than connecting with it on a personallevel. Of course, that's only because I like to catch bass andwould use any excuse to fish.
I love state [of the] art commission/council websites. They arechocked full of new announcements, competitions, grants, as wellas instructional ideas and meetings for writers and artists.These groups are underutilized in my opinion."
It's putting your name (and sometimes your face) in front ofpotential customers that keeps the "happy stress" going andwards off the "bad stress"."
Dana Cassell, editor, Cassell Network [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] -
"Getaways--This one's weird. I like to go to Ontario, to myparents' fishing camp, and sit by the river with my journal orjust sit and [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] read a book.
Lori Widmer -
-- Question # Two - What are your favorite life and workresources? --
In the past, I posted jobs to the better-known general andlarger writer-specific job sites, but received too manyresponses, most of which were not at all what I was looking for.So I've learned to more tightly target and control my searchesfor freelancers."
Page Two
Jenny Kasza -
"Mine is a constant effort at seeking new sources.
Also, a good grammar and sentence-structure primer is essential.I use the Harbrace College Handbook. It answers those naggingquestions about where my commas should be.
Teresa Acosta -
Page One
Also, I've made templates of my own personal invoice so I onlyneed to pop in the info and not reinvent the wheel each time Isend out my invoices.
Technology can waste a lot of time, too. In my experience, it'sfaster, not but easier, to make a phone call than to write anemail. And without question, people are more important than theInternet."
Freelancers contact me from time to time, and, depending on howthey present themselves and how qualified they look, I mayfollow up. But most of my articles come directly or indirectlyfrom our members.
I'm also a list-maker. I have my Outlook calendar littered withnotes telling me what I should work on for that day if I want toremain on schedule."
I keep my job because it suits my needs and provides me withsecurity--I'm confident they would have trouble finding someoneelse who could do this or who would want to! (I work very hard.)"
Tiffany Owens -
Yes, editors commit errors too, especially when communicatingvia the quick and dirty method we lovingly call e-mail.
