You’re not alone. Really.

Carol’s put out another great book, but for me, this is probably the most important one I have. Got a fear of writing, marketing and/or editors? Learn the techniques used by Carol and other writers with the same fears in this collection of writings. You’re not alone. Really. Let Carol and her fellow authors help you. They helped me. – RJ

From now on, I’m cracking this book open first for all freelance questions! (if I don’t choose to search through the Den’s forums!) -Gina D’Andrea Weatherup

About the Author

Carol Tice selfieHi – Carol Tice here. Yes, I am a real person. That’s a shot of me on the right there, on a recent vacation to a warm lake in Canada (I know! Who knew they had one?).

I am a journalist, business writer, and blogger. Besides writing this blog, I founded the writer support and learning community Freelance Writers Den in 2011 (see that “Writer Community” tab up top for more on that). I’ve earned a full-time living from writing since the early ’90s, and have freelanced for over a decade, for clients including Forbes, Entrepreneur, Alaska Airlines Magazine, Costco, American Express, Dun & Bradstreet, Lending Tree, and many more.

Be fearless!
