FREE Teleseminars -- AnnieJenningsPR.com's “Three in One”

And you thought you saw it all, NEVER with AnnieJenningPR.com This week...
AnnieJenningsPR.com is offering... NOT one, NOT two, but THREE FREE Teleseminars in One Week! Hang on to your virtual hats...

Here we go...

TELESEMINAR ONE: Tuesday, April 26th

"Insider Secrets For Finding A Literary Agent" with Award-winning Freelance Writer & Consultant Sarah Wernick, Ph.D. (Sarah is a repeat visitor at AnnieJenningsPr.com)

Tuesday, April 26th
1:00 PM - 2:00 PM Eastern
(10:00 AM PT, 11:00 AM MT, 12N CT)


If you're trying to sell a book to a large publisher - whether it's fiction or non-fiction - landing an agent is a necessary first step. These days, most publishers won't look at an unsolicited manuscript unless it's been submitted by an agent. But finding a literary agent can be almost as tough as finding a publisher. Agents reject about 99% of the submissions they receive. How can you make it into the other 1%?

Sarah Wernick will tell you exactly what it takes:

  • The one thing that every agent looks for in a new client
  • How to find agents who are open to new writers
  • Three ways to guarantee that an agent (not a junior assistant) will read your query letter
  • How to approach agents so that you don't wait months for a response
  • Red flags that warn an agent is not legit

Roz View: On the “Light-er” Side ... Favorite Time!

This is absolutely my most favorite time of year... with the longer days and nights. I suppose we can call it the “gift from G-d” which enables us to get “more done” in the “same time!”

Something to think about... In the dead of winter it is dark before 5PM, now it is light after 8PM.

Enjoy your time, it only comes around once a year!

Roz View: Today's Buzz — AnnieJenningsPR.com Teleseminars

It's not a coincidence that today's AnnieJenningsPR.com teleseminar was on the technique of Buzz, creating Buzz, how to use Buzz and not abuse Buzz — among many other tidbits Annie Jennings shared with the teleseminar's attendees.

The seminar was so informative, exciting and motivational it was not five minutes after it ended I was on the phone congratulating Annie on yet another fabulous teleseminar topic. Annie's energy is contagious as her voice flows through the phone lines. I was so excited, I wanted her to hear the passion and excitement the seminar ignited within me. I am positive others felt the same, but I wanted to be the first to share my feelings with her.

AnnieJenningsPR.com offers two free teleseminars most weeks throughout the year. They are hosted by Annie Jennings / AnnieJenningsPR.com and moderated by Radio Host and Media Trainer Tony Trupiano of Effective Media Training. Industry leaders in their specific areas of expertise are often guest speakers. The teleseminars take place on:

The teleseminars are free except for any long distance phone charges you may incur. With today's unlimited long distance phone packages there is no reason why everyone cannot attend.

As silly as this sounds, I can honestly say that many doors opened for me and my life changed when I signed up for an unlimited long distance phone package. I can now pick up the phone on whim and not worry about humongous phone charges as my phone bill is the same each month.

My point in commenting on the unlimited phone packages is to share how easy it is to attend these teleseminars and others being offered on a weekly basis with experts like Annie Jennings and Tony Trupiano.

Roz View: Reminder — Clocks Move Forward

Just a reminder to all...

It's time to change the clocks...

Remember, Spring Ahead, Fall Back! Ok, ok... Just move the clocks “forward” one hour!

For me... This is my most favorite time of the year! I love the longer days and evenings. I get out more and enjoy the fresh air and nature! It's truly a “gift from G_d!”

Enjoy!

Roz View: Pope John Paul — With the Lord Now!

My heart goes out to the Christian people tonight and the world in general. The Pope's passing is our loss. He was an inspiration to all!

May he rest in peace now!
