5.0 out of 5 stars Wrote over 50 cards just from the exercises!, July 10, 2001
By 
M. Allen (CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Write Well & Sell: Greeting Cards (Paperback)
There are two things that make this book exceptional. One is that if you know nothing about greeting card writing it covers a lot of territory. The exercises are designed to put you in the frame of mind you will need to be a greeting card writer. And two, the follow up that Mrs. Miller-Louden provides. It's one thing to read a book and have questions, it's another to be offered communication with the author through email and snail mail. And have quick responses to your inquiries. She also has a message board where others can talk to one another about this new career. She is definitely a teacher that cares about her students walking away understanding the material and being able to apply it. (Granted: if you are looking for a literary masterpiece, can't help you. If your looking for a laymans book to get you going on a possible career in greeting cards, then this primer is for you!)

5.0 out of 5 stars The Greeting Card Writer's Bible, February 4, 2002
This review is from: Write Well & Sell: Greeting Cards (Paperback)
This book covers every imaginable topic a prospective greeting card writer needs to know. Once you pick it up, you will read it cover-to-cover, and will be inspired to get started in the business. I first read the book this past July and immediately began to follow Sandra's plan for success. In less than six months, I have sold over ten verses to three different companies and feel confident that this is only the beginning. I am also amazed at how accessible Sandra is to her readers. Via e-mail, she has guided me, inspired me, and motivated me. Whenever I feel that there couldn't possibly be any more ideas out there that haven't already been done, I go back to the "We Write!" section and do the exercises again. Some of my successful verse is the direct result of her suggestions, such as the clever "Initials" exercise. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever thought about writing greeting cards. Like any writing genre, Sandra tells us there is rejection, but that perseverance can and does pay off. I'm making money while having fun - it just doesn't get any better than that!

5.0 out of 5 stars A "Must Have" Book!, February 11, 2001
By 
This review is from: Write Well & Sell: Greeting Cards (Paperback)
Sandra M. Louden offers a wealth of real life expertize and advice on how to not only "think" about the freelance business of writing greeting cards but also how to actually "do" it! It's an easily-readable "soup to nuts" guide that even explains how to set up a filing system in your home. (Over a weekend, I read the book, collected the supplies, put them all in a banker's box and was ready to go!) The author avails herself to Internet access for follow-up communication and offers a "verse critiquing" service. A fun and inspiring book to get you started!
