Living the
Writer's Life
The Daily Grind is currently on hiatus. We
will send announcements if and when the Grind returns.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
That's what the Daily Grind is all about...living the writer's life.
Whether you're struggling to carve time out of your day for writing, or
frustrated by rejection letters, or just trying to keep your office
organized, we've got tips for you.
The Daily Grind is a weekly tip-letter, despite the title, which
refers to the daily grind of living life as a writer while raising a
family and holding down a day job, and not the frequency of our
mailings. If you'd like to read some back issues before you subscribe, you can
check them out in our archives at Topica.com.
About
Our Daily Grind Tipster
John earned his B.A. from Cornell College ("a slice of New England
academia tucked away on an Iowa hillside"), majoring in English and
Philosophy.
He has a "real" job. He has a wife. He has a mortgage. He also
has a passion for writing. John has written scripts for five award-winning
educational films, has published several trade articles, written a book
foreword, and produced a peppering of education/training handbooks. He has
also begun a very respectable collection of short story rejection letters.
John is currently grappling with a series of five non-fiction books in
addition to his novel-in-progress, "Anytown."
John has been writing the Daily Grind tips since October of ought-one (in
prospectors' speak).
