Is your office a mess? Your desk cluttered? Your electronic files stored in no apparent order?
Do you want – or desperately need – to do a better job of organizing your freelance writing business?
If so, please join us for the next WordCount Last Wednesday chat, when we’ll share tips freelance writers and bloggers can use to get organized.
The chat takes place on Wednesday, Aug. 29, at 10 a.m. Pacific time. Uses hashtag #wclw to join the chat.
Joining me for the discussion is Stephanie Auteri, a freelance writer, writing coach and self-professed organization geek. Auteri will share her tips and tricks for reigning in the chaos around your writing life.
Questions for #wclw chat
For the 60-minute chat, we’ll start with introductions, I’ll ask Auteri some pre-set questions and we’ll leave plenty of time at the end for other questions.
Here are the questions Auteri will be tackling – and that everyone else is encouraged to weigh in on as well:
- What obstacles prevent writers from being more organized?
- What are some simple things writers can do to get started?
- What are some of your favorite organizing tools?
How to join the #wclw chat
To join the #wclw chat, you need a Twitter account and free time from 10 to 11 a.m. PDT on Aug. 29. Use the hashtag to follow tweets related to the chat. It’s possible to use the standard Twitter interface , but you might find it easier using a Twitter application such as TweetGrid, TweetChat or HootSuite. Of those three, my favorite is TweetChat, which you can log into using your Twitter account. You might want to alert followers that you’ll be tweeting more than usual during the chat, and suggest they use Muuter.com to temporarily mute you if they don’t want to tune into the conversation.
If you’re unable to join us, I’ll post a complete transcript of the chat on Wednesday afternoon.
