WAM! 2009

This morning I participated in a panel at the WAM! (Women, Action, Media) conference sponsored by the Center for New Words in Cambridge.

The panel, titled "Making Money From Your Writing: How to Negotiate Money and Rights with Editors," was an initiative of the Boston chapter of the National Writers Union and part of our ongoing effort to educate writers on valuing their work, knowing their rights, and getting paid for their writing.

This was our second year there. So, what exactly did we talk about? Lena was there and covered this (and some of the other panels) for her blog, the ch!cktionary. Click here to read what she had to say about it.
