If you're a freelance writer, you're in sales

For many of us the holiday shopping season is already in full swing, and that leads me to mention an upcoming article in The Writer's February issue, which we're busy putting to bed this week and next.

A very accomplished freelance writer and book author, Caitlin Kelly, who has had more than 100 articles in The New York Times, took a part-time job as a retail sales associate for a high-end clothing store. On her way to becoming a very productive saleswoman there, she learned some valuable lessons about selling that are directly applicable to the writing game, and she shares them with you.

Look for the February issue, which is full of plenty of other good advice, in early January.
