Blur: How to Know What’s True in the Age of Information Overload by Bill Kovach and Tom Rosenstiel

On September 4, 2011, in Book Reviews, Nonfiction, by Wilfried F. Voss

Veteran journalists Kovach and Rosenstiel (The Elements of Journalism) begin their intelligent and well-written guidebook by assuring readers this is not unfamiliar territory. The printing press, the telegraph, radio, and television were once just as unsettling and disruptive as today’s Internet, blogs, and Twitter posts.

On August 11, 2011, in Articles, Wilfried F. Voss, by Wilfried F. Voss

What is this all about, you may ask? Well, as a writer, my mind is full of ideas for new novels. Some of these ideas make it (The Bleeding Hills and American Male Prostitute), others are either put on hold or don’t make it at all.

On August 10, 2011, in Amazon Kindle, Articles, Book Reviews, Fiction, Wilfried F. Voss, by Wilfried F. Voss

The question remains, what does it take these days to get a book deal with a traditional publisher? What do you do when, hypothetically, you are running out of time and mere talent is not the be-all and end-all?

On August 7, 2011, in American Male Prostitute, Wilfried F. Voss, Writing Update, by Wilfried F. Voss

On August 5, 2011, in American Male Prostitute, Wilfried F. Voss, Writer's Digest, Writing & Publishing, Writing Update, by Wilfried F. Voss

Let me explain to those not familiar with the publishing business, a writers’ magazine cannot exist without the vast number of delusional writers who will never have the slightest chance of ever being published. In order to have your book published, you need to be talented and, as I was told from day one, the vast majority of our subscribers weren’t.

In Between Writing and Editing

On April 6, 2011, in Ariel Ceylan, Blogging, Guest Writers, Writing & Publishing, Writing Tips, by Ariel Ceylan

After spending time to write a book, one undergoes a long period of rewriting and editing. This is usually best when one does not start the editing process right after writing the piece.

What The Heck Is Ploughshares?

On April 27, 2010, in Neurotica, Writing & Publishing, by Wilfried F. Voss

If it takes several minutes of educated guessing to find out what Ploughshares possibly represents, you have lost a potential subscriber, and the free Ploughshares tote bag won’t convince them, either. Yes, I could log on to the Internet and get more information, but, honestly, why should I? You already wasted enough of my time.
