Two Related Posts on the Business of Writing, Both Up Today

I have two related, cross-linked posts up today.  They are both on the business of writing and publishing.

The first post is my regular Monday post at the Magical Words blog site, which I maintain with fellow authors Faith Hunter, Misty Massey, John Hartness, and Mindy Klasky.  Today's Magical Words post is called, "'It's Just Business': Loyalty Versus Pragmatism in the Publishing World," and it is about the various factors that go into a writer's career decisions.  You can find the post here.

The second is my monthly post at the SFNovelists blog site, a site I maintain with over one hundred published authors of speculative fiction.  That post is called "Professional Comportment and What it Does For a Writer," and it is about the ways in which an author can maintain a good relationship with his/her publisher.  You can find the SFNovelists post here.

I hope that you enjoy both posts and find them helpful and informative. Thanks!
