WORKSHOP Writer's tips
Welcome to the first issue of 1996!
Many thanks to those of you who sent in reader surveys; I am
still
compiling results (which is why this issue is so late).
Congratulations
to Kristen Ghesquiere (markgmd@alpha.nornet.on.ca)! Her name was
randomly picked from surveys returned via email and snailmail by
January
15th. Upon being told that she had just won a copy of the 1996
Writer's
Market, Kristen said, "I'm quite astonished - this is only about
the
second time in my life I've won anything!"
If you haven't sent back your reader survey yet, please do take
the time
to fill it out. I rely heavily on reader feedback when planning
future
issues. Even you don't have time to fill out the whole survey (or
you've
lost it), even a brief e-mail with suggestions would be immensely
appreciated.
Back issues starting with Issue 1.6 are now available from an ftp
site
at ftp://ftp.samurai.com/pub/lists/inklings/. Earlier issues can
be
obtained from http://www.interlog.com/~ohi/ink/backink.html.

include

GETTING OUT OF THE SLUSH PILE - by Lori Mack
=============================
Here are a few hints for writers who want to get beyond the
slush:
1. Don't look for an agent. Send your manuscript straight to the
publisher. It's much easier to get an agent after you've had one
book
published.
2. The slush is read by editorial assistants straight out of
college (I
used to be one). Catch their attention with lively colored
envelopes,
very neat manuscripts, and short cover letters. Don't send
dog-eared or
worn-out manusripts.
3. If you're writing a picture book and you're not an artist,
don't find
one yourself. Send your story by itself. If the editor wants
it, she
will pair you with a well-known illustrator.
4. People say "send query letters," but don't bother. It will
usually
bring you a rejection postcard. Send the whole manuscript.
5. Don't call or write. Just wait.
6. Don't send it to more than one publisher at once. However, if
one
publisher rejects it, don't get discouraged. Send it everywhere!
I
remember rejecting manuscripts that were on the next list of my
new
house by the time I changed jobs. Don't give up. Manuscripts
that go
around and around often get picked up eventually.
==-----------------------------------------------------==
Lori Mack, former children's book editor at Dell Publishing in
New York,
will read and respond privately to you about your work. "I'll
critique
and/or line-edit your manuscript for a reasonable fee. But I
can't
promise to get you in! Just keep on trying if you've got a good
story.
Children's book editors do buy from the slush once in a while and
it
really helps to have insight into the process. You can send a
note to
me by email, but please don't send your manuscript by email --
even if
it's short. I'll respond with a price for the length of your
work."
Experienced in picture books, middle-grade novels, series, and
YAs. Not
a literary agent. References available. Send email:

ASK THE BOOK DOCTOR
===================
Revision advice?
----------------
Q. I hate revising. Do you have any advice on how to make this
process easier? - IA
Dear IA:
It's an age old problem... revision. Sometimes it takes a change
in
outlook to make the process move along. Do you ever remember a
time
you reworked a piece and it turned out to be absolutely
wonderful, or
at least a lot better than when you started? Try to think back
at
times when you really enjoyed revision and your changes made the
manuscript better. Don't give up. Make sure you let your work
"cool
off' a little before you edit. That might help too. Remember,
writing
is an art and revision is part of becoming a true craftsman.
Hope this
helps.

RESOURCES FOR SCREENWRITERS AND PLAYWRIGHTS
===========================================
Charles Deemer's website, Resources For Screenwriters And
Playwrights,
has long been acknowledged as one of the best screen/playwriting
resources on the net
(http://www.teleport.com/~cdeemer/scrwriter.html).
His frequently updated site includes useful FAQs (Frequently
Asked
Questions), nuts and bolts information (from dramatic structure
to
format to marketing), tips from the pros in the craft, links to
film
databases, reviews, scripts, lyrics, other writing resources,
events,
fellowships, and much more.
How did you get involved in creating Resources for Screenwriters
and
Playwrights?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
----
At first, I did a personal home page in order to learn HTML - I
was
already writing in hypertext using a DOS program called Iris. In
surfing, I discovered nothing for screenwriters or playwrights,
so I
founded The Screenwriters and Playwrights Home Page. And it just
took off.
How has the internet affected your own screenwriting and
playwriting career?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------
Far more than I would have thought. For example, by being
"first", in
the right place at the right time with the right skills
(regarding the
screenwriters resources especially), I have a kind of
"credibility" as a
screenwriter that I didn't have before. For example, I was
invited to
submit a column to the Internet Screenwriters Network - no hard
copy
magazine ever invited me to submit a column about screenwriting.
I have
been able to network with people in Hollywood/L.A. in a way not
possible
before. I have made many new professional friends. Also, I have
learned
things that have improved my craft and, particularly, my sense of
the
Hollywood marketplace. The Internet has removed boundaries and,
rather
by accident, I have found myself with cyber-credentials I didn't
even
know I was carving out for myself. The reverse of this coin, of
course,
is the temptation to hobnob in cyberspace instead of WORK :-)
Let me
also say that my screenwriting career has been more positively
affected
than my playwriting career, perhaps because the film industry is
more
market-bound, rule-bound, than the theater world, so that
"insider"
information and contacts become more important. Or maybe because
I
devote more time to the screenwriting side these days.
Do you have any advice for screenwriters and playwrights on the
net?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
---
Don't get addicted to PLAY on the Net! Seriously. The net
offers
incredible resources - for example, IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is
the most
under-utilized resource there is, operating almost exclusively as
a
singles cyberbar when it could be used for writing workshops (see
my
column at http://Screenwriters.com/Deemer/). Take advantage of
the
increased access to professional writers, online courses, and
online
resources to improve your craft. Online "pitching" is available
with
some prodcos and more is coming - use the Net to improve your
marketing
strategy. The danger is, the Net can be so much FUN that it can
interrupt your work schedule. Don't let it. Remember, the Net
is only a
TOOL - but an extraordinary one for opening career and learning
doors not
available before to people out of the geographic mainstream. Use
the
tool for more than play.
==-----------------------------------------------------==
Charles Deemer is an experienced screenwriter and playwright who
has
received many grants and honours for fiction and playwriting. His
works
include over a dozen plays (two screenplays currently optioned
and in
development), hundreds of published articles and stories. He is a
part-
time instructor at Clark College and also teaches internet
courses for
Eastern Oregon State College and Writers On The Net
(http://www.writers.com/). He can be reached at

ASK THE AGENT
=============
Send your questions to Susan Graham at slgraham@mindspring.com
with the
words "inklings agent question" in the subject header.
Q. How do I get an agent? Do I really need one?
-----------------------------------------------
First, you need to have a product that an agent can sell. So
finish your
book! Then don't stop there. Edit it thoroughly. I highly
recommend a
book entitled Getting The Words Right by Theodore A. Rees Cheney.
When that
is complete, make sure to format it properly. And last but not
least, work
on your query letter. That's where you get your foot in the door
-- or not.
*Then* you can go looking for an agent. Ask around to see if
anyone you
know has one or knows one first. Then look in the various agent
directories
for one who is looking for the type of material you have written.
Pay close
attention to the guidelines, and follow them. Be courteous,
professional,
patient, and persistent. Don't call "just to follow up." If
you're
submitting to more than one agent, make a note of it in your
letter.
You need an agent if you've got a book that's finished and you're
not
extremely familiar with the publishing industry. There are many
subtleties
in the contracts and many other dealings with the publisher that
could mean
a great deal of money to you. The agent looks after your best
interests in
this area.
