  This won’t make you money. Yes, yes. I know. I’m sad about it too. It will however help you down the road to making you money…or at least I hope that’s what it’s doing for me. It’s posted under my alter ego (and vaguely familiar site) Norway Writes.There are so many ‘keys’ to be a good writer, that generally none of them are key. Because the word key insinuates some tempestuous journey with a lock at the other end for which you will require said key item. There isn’t any such lock.You will not find at the end of your rainbow a pot of gold. It’ll be a half of a single piece of gold and the beginnings of a thousand more rainbows. There is no key to good writing. It’s in the feel, in the talent, in the observation, and most
  Writers must network with other writers in order to learn and grow. My local writing group serves as a passion support mechanism for my writing. It is invaluable to me because it is the sacred place where I share my experiences, triumphs, and struggles as a writer. To form and promote a writing group in your local area, follow the steps below--before long you will have an energetic passion support mechanism for your own words. Good Luck and Have Fun!

  Vision and Purpose

  Have in mind a vision and general purpose for your local writing group. Your vision and purpose should be created based on the needs of your members. This can be a bulleted list of the reasons your group exists. At your first meeting, openly brainstorm with the new members by passing out a questionnaire. After your meeting, it is very easy to type up the purpose and vision of your new writing group from reading your participants' responses.

      Why Sell Your Home For Sale By Owner?
      1. LESS HASSLE AND LESS FRUSTRATION: When selling your home by owner, you don't have to leave your home every time an agent wants to show it, or clean it every morning before leaving "just in case". You know when people are coming and can prepare when needed. When a buyer makes an offer, there's not all that frustration of "back-and-forth" telephone tag between agents to reach an agreement. It can be done in minutes, and end with a friendly handshake and smile between owner & buyer prior to going to contract.2. NOBODY ELSE CAN SHOW YOUR HOME AS GOOD AS YOU: You know your home better than anyone. The schools, the neighborhood, what is special about your home and the area, as well as other uniq

        Consumer Driven Health Care For Individuals And Small Businesses
        A Good Match!Small businesses are responsible for about eighty to ninety percent of all businesses and employment in the United States. Therefore, they comprise the largest workforce in the US. Health care is the single largest problem facing employees and Middle America. These two major components of our society converge at a point where this workforce is in dire need of affordable health care coverage. In the past it didn’t matter if an employer was able to afford health care for his/her employees but this has changed and you need to be ready for more changes – now! Why? Universal health care is here, where everyone has to pay his or her portion of the overall health care bill just as we all now pay for auto insurance. Of co

          How to Lease Option any Home
          Haven't been able to achieve the "American Dream" of home ownership? No matter where you turn to try to buy a home you're always "turned down" or your just "don't qualify." We cure your heartbreak through our Lease Purchase. Do you fit this scenario: you have a good job, good rental history, and could pull together $6,000 or $7,000, but you have a few glitches and blemishes on your credit report or maybe just some slow pays, a car repo, or maybe some other type of credit problem. Because you're not an "A" credit borrower the lenders are telling you that you need 10% or 15% down payment (that's a lot on a $400,000 home), closing costs (another $5,000 or so), plus you're going to get a high interest rate!

          • Share Information Pertaining To Our Writing
          • Edit Our Writing
          • Critique Our Writing

          I also asked a question on my questionnaire about what each new member wrote. This helped me to understand their writing needs and allowed me to create a description of what we write as a group. This information is also useful to share with potential future members.

          Organizational Suggestions

          The following organizational techniques might be helpful as you start and form your own local writing group.

          • Keep a notepad by the telephone to record names, addresses, and phone numbers of people as they call for more information about your group and meeting place.

            At the meetings:

            • Use name tags.
            • Use a sign-in sheet to record names, address, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses.
