[Stylist] [stylist] {Spam?} The business side of writing and creating

[thearamsay at rogers.com]

Bill, if you're still interested in knowing more about the business of
writing, I belong to the Barefoot Writers Club, and they have courses, kind
of on the pricey side, that teach you how to do copywriting--that is, web
content and other kinds of writing that people hire you to do.

While I've made some money on my novel, "Lucy", and on my novella, "A Very
Special House", which you can check out after my signature, the money I've
spent self-publishing and promoting my work will never be paid off by my
monthly disability income.
So, I joined the Barefoot Writers Club, and got introduced to AWAI, American
Writers and Artists.
As I said, their courses are pricey. I've just started to take their
Accelerated Copywriting course.
And I hope the heck it pays off.

Subject: [stylist] {Spam?} The business side of writing and creating

Good afternoon.  

 

I am wondering about the business side of writing and creative ventures.
I'm not sure what questions to ask first, actually.  

 

I guess the first couple of things to ask is how to know when to set up some
sort of entity, and secondly what form it should take structurally.  Third
would be what sort of skills will I need to do this successfully and
sustainably.  

 

I want to know other basic pieces of planning and development information I
need that might not be immediately obvious to me, even if it should be.  

 

I may also need some other sort of venture to sustain myself alongside the
creative, advocacy and experimental things I desire to continue to do, both
at my current and possibly greater level.
