ScienceOnline2010 – Writing for more than glory: Proposals and Pitches that Pay (video) – Part 6

Writing for more than glory: Proposals and Pitches that Pay – Rebecca Skloot with guests
Saturday, January 16 – 4:40 – 5:45pm
Description: What is a sellable idea? How do you develop one? Is your idea enough for a book, is there more you can do to develop it, or should it just be a magazine article or series of blog posts? This will be a hands-on nuts and bolts workshop: Come with ideas to pitch. Better yet, bring a short (1 page or less) written proposal to read and workshop. This workshop will provide handouts on proposal writing as well as sample proposals you can use to help develop your own in the future. Useful for anyone hoping to someday write for print or online publications.
