Business of Storytelling

If you've been in love with stories for a while, you've probably thought about making them the center of your working life. But if you're also a realist, you know how unlikely it is to make a living from the stories you tell. And since you like to eat (or so I assume), you may have set that dream aside.But I want you to take that dream off the shelf. You can make a living from your knowledge of writing—it's just probably not in exactly the way you think.The Business of Storytelling explores how to create a profitable writing-editing career, whether you're a new graduate just entering the world of work, a midcareer professional looking to transition to Act 2, or a retiree looking for an income stream.Veteran book author and editor Jennifer Lawler is your guide on this journey. For more than twenty years, she's made a living as a writer-editor – with enough time left over to pursue her creative work.
