We have so much going on at Writers on the Rise that it seemed like a  
good time to start a mid-month forecast tradition. We’ll send you a  
quick list of what’s happening at Writers on the Rise mid-month, so  
you won’t miss a single opportunity to create the writing career  
you’ve imagined! You can expect this mid-month forecast each month,  
in-between new issues of Writers on the Rise.

Setting WOTR News:
The January issue of Writers on the Rise, with our fifteen new  
contributors, has garnered the most hits in our history. If you  
haven’t had a chance to catch the inspiration, insight and ideas that  
you can apply directly to your career in 2007, here are  a few  
highlights:

Pitching a book this year? We’ve got a monthly interview with a  
publishing industry insider. This month it’s Brook Warner from Seal  
Press by Cindy Hudson.

Are you a parent-writer? Author and seasoned freelance journalist,  
Sharon Cindrich, offers great ideas for leveraging your real-life  
parenting experiences with editors.

Do you struggle with more ideas than you have time to carry out?  
Columnist Hope Clark’s time management tips and real-life strategies  
will set you on a path that will boost your productivity and help you  
take charge of your writing time.

And those are just a few topics. Also covered this month: clarity, an  
exciting new interview with the Renegade Writers, important news and  
information on upcoming conferences, and the scoop on “green”  
publications you can pitch!

Raffle-O-Rama!

This month’s raffle book is Writer Mama, How to Raise a Writing  
Career Alongside Your Kids by Christina Katz. See this month’s issue  
for details on how you can win a signed copy!

Rising WOTR News:
In the last forty-eight hours or so of the Preditors and Editors poll  
to select the best e-zine editor, Christina Katz went from not being  
nominated to number five on the list of over seventy zine editors.  
Thanks to everyone who voted! (Results at: http://www.critters.org/
predpoll/tally.html)

Managing editor, Sage Cohen, was nominated for Best Poet 24 hours  
before the polls closed, and soared to 11th place out of over forty  
nominations. (Results also at: http://www.critters.org/predpoll/
tally.html)

Wait until next year, when we are actually prepared for such things!
