Courageous Move

[sarabellae]

I bucked up my courage the other night and wrote to my uncle, the publisher. His company is small but very well regarded, a leader in the field. I told him I was in the market for DE work-higher level stuff-and attached my résumé and client testimonials. I have worked for his company before as a copyeditor on two fascinating books. I loved the work

Nothing chicken about writing the uncle.

Awesome that it's something that may actually be interesting to you, rather than just words.

Congrats.

Congratulations on putting yourself out there. I know that wasn't easy for you - even though you've worked for your uncle before.

I'll be looking forward to updates.

Wheeeeeeee! This is fabulous! I'm excited for you. Way to go on the marketing!

Well done! Never hurts to market to family. Actually now that I think about it, marketing to family is way more painful than strangers. I think this is quite courageous, actually! Congrats!
