Course Description

In the unlikeliest of settings (on vacation by the ocean of The Outer Banks), Sandra Miller-Louden was approached by a book editor of a major newspaper to write book reviews. Instead of opportunity knocking, it literally surfed its way in—and Sandra decided to ride the wave. Book reviewing is a genre rarely explored, yet book reviews are everywhere!

When you read a book, you always have an opinion about it, don't you? Well, why not turn that opinion into cash by writing book reviews? How do you get books to review and where are the best places to peddle your freelance reviews after you've written them? Sandra Miller-Louden is introducing her latest course—Book Reviews That Rock. This 4-week course will give you the tools to pursue book reviewing. Included in the course is Sandra's signature "Balanced and Power Assignments" ™—all designed to get you writing, keep you writing and sustain that creative flow!

Thank you Sandra. though I have not met you, I feel compelled to say, I think you are a wonderful person as well as an excellent teacher! You care.
