Dear Reader
Barely twenty years ago, Writing Magazine was featuring articles on the new technology of ‘electronic mail’, how to transfer your Amstrad word processing documents to more modern PCs, and the launch of a new computer, the iMac, the first Apple to feature a USB drive. In those days, it was still viable to be an offline, hard copy writer, and marketing was best left to the professionals at your publishing company. Many of us still try to resist the relentless march of technology, preferring to write first drafts longhand, for example, but even the most luddite 2019 writer has had to fall in step. And why not? The ability to email 100 publishers the same document, at zero cost, without worrying about expensively photocopied documents being returned with coffee stains on them, is worth the buy-in alone. But say what you like about our always-on society, tethered to the blue glow of some screen or other and the Pavlovian reward of a new ‘like’, our constant connectivity is also our biggest reward: tweet instantly for encouragement and support from people who have all chosen to follow you; post your book news online to catch interested readers whenever they find you; build a mutual support network with other writers like you. However you look at it, the digital world overflows with opportunities for the go-getting writer, and our writers are here to help you grab them. So start exploring new ways to boost your online profile on p11.
And don’t forget to tweet or IM to let us know how you get on.
