In 2008 the prestigious company Writers’ Digest, part of the American F+M Publications, voted Esther Heller’s website www.jewishwriting.com one of the top 101 sites in the world.
"This site is for e-mail and correspondence classes, but if you dig a little you’ll find some of the best resources of Jewish writing and publications. Tamar Wisemon’s article on the Jewish magazine and newspaper market is a must read," they wrote.
Praise indeed, but the focal point made in their appraisal was the comment "Dig a little."
Like Alice peeping Through the Looking Glass there’s a lot to find when you seriously explore the site in some detail.
Esther’s Jobshuk PROFILE is very routine, just a few brief comments about her professional skills and qualifications, but the website is chock-a-block with goodies.
Simply compiled, homegrown if you like, the site is devoid of pretty pictures, graphics and futuristic designs, concentrating wholly on information. Loads of it and clearly compiled for easy reading.
You’ll discover details about Esther’s book Tools and Tips for Jewish Writers. Everything you need to know about the Jewish Writing Institute. Ways how to turn good writing into great writing.
Open ‘Links’ and uncover a comprehensive listing of publications for your information and interest.
In the electronic age of communication in which we live, thousands, maybe millions, of would-be writers are out there scratching around trying to eke out a living.
It’s not easy getting published, even getting paid for plying together articles. What might appear to be a lucrative way to earn money, sitting at home and thumping away on the computer is a totally misguided view.
That’s when you need the professional input of Esther Heller to teach, to advise and to assist in the art of creative writing.
Write what you KNOW. Write what you LOVE and write what you FIND EASY, but that’s just the beginning. It is essential to learn how to craft your trade.
PROFILE-PLUS is devised and compiled by Creative Copywriter Lloyd Masel as a free service to JobShuk members, designed to offer additional public exposure.
