Intro to Writing/Publishing

The following are my notes on Darryl W. Perry's discussion at the Keene Activism Center on writing and publishing.

July 2012

Intro to Writing and Publishing:

How to Write an Article of Any Kind

• Who
• What
• When
• Where
• Why
• How / Solution

Ideally 400-600 words.

Free City Papers often need filler

• needs to be somewhat interesting

Letters to the Editor should be under 200 words

WRITE ON A CONSISTENT BASIS

• readers know when to go to you for new content
• helps get writer into a routine

ALWAYS have someone proof-read 

ALWAYS offer solutions

WHO YOUR AUDIENCE???

• General Audience
• Voluntaryists
• Politicos

Offer Solutions at the end

Create Space,

Lulu,

Smash-Words

LAVA = Libertarians Agorists Voluntaryists Anarchists = (Authors and Publishers Association)

• Accepts Article writers?  No.
• Must be in book form, author must be a LAVA

Invite Authors and Publishers to Occupy Public Places and Vend their Wares in Keene
