		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re up on your Kindle books, you&#8217;ve heard about the new Kindle lending program. You can now &#8220;borrow&#8221; ebooks through your Kindle if you are an Amazon Prime member. There are limits to how many you can borrow, but it&#8217;s a neat program. But what does this mean for you as an ebook author? [...]]]></description>

I use a Mac and Endicia is my favorite program. I can put a picture in my return address (AJ Scudiere font). It saves a log of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some old friends of mine are screenplay writers. They write together in their home. And they say having guests is really difficult. People don’t understand that—though they are home—they are at work. People who would never walk into your corporate office and start chatting will do just that if you work at home, which is [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s an e-mail sent out 3 times a day (yep, really) with people who are looking for experts and interviews. You could be one of those people!

		<description><![CDATA[Until you write regularly you won’t write regularly. I know that sounds stupid, but it’s true. A lot of people will tell you to set up a regular time each day (one of my friends did this from 5am-6am every day – I don’t have that in me.) Or they may tell you to get [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When it comes to naming your book, search before you decide. Go on Amazon and Goodreads and search for books with your desired title. Too many books with the same title makes it hard for people to find your book. And nobody wants their biography confused with a YA joke book. Google your title. Is [...]]]></description>

But remember, if you can’t think of an interesting way to get your character from point A to point B, then consider this: don’t. Use space judiciously. There are all kinds of wonderful characters [...]]]></description>

Ask them who they&#8217;ve represented and then speak to those people. Find out how good they are at staying in touch with you. How often with they update you? Are they open to you asking questions [...]]]></description>

The editor and I chopped nearly 55thousand words. Yeah, that’s the size of some writer’s whole books. The other panelists were shocked, but I [...]]]></description>
