| harlemwriter | Posted – 6/13/2007 10:00:12 AM | show profile I'm looking to get into book reviewing & trying to find an entry point. Last year I had posted a question about this & someone wrote with a contact at PW. I saved the info, meaning to contact the person, and then my husband had a bike accident & broke his arms & in all the craziness surrounding that I erased the email & sort of forgot about the whole thing. But I've started thinking about it again & realize this is something I do want to try. So if anyone knows of a good starting point or person to contact, I'd really appreciate it. I know it's unpaid or low pay at first & that's fine. I just want to get clips. Thanks! |

They're e-mail formula is: firstinitiallastname@reedbusiness.com ------ steph - contains multitudes, yet still spends most of her time with the copy machine. www.stephiswrite.com |
