    1. A Helpful Book
    2. Pamela G Hurak
    3. A couple of days ago, I received a book ordered from Willow Bend Books ( http://www.mediasoft.net/ScottC ) called The What Shall I Write Handbook For Editors of Family and Genealogy Society Newsletters. I had ordered the book more out of curiousity than all else and it turned out to be a wonderful surprize. It was like receiving a well-written copy of an editors free-writing or sounding board. All kinds of ideas for articles or subjects and so forth. As a rather new editor/publisher, I am always trying to keep my eyes out for a 'fresh look' into article ideas and other things to include to make my newsletter more interesting and beneficial for the subscribers. I found this book wonderful because it really is full of ideas. It was only $16 plus postage and is available from Willow Bend Books 39475 Tollhouse Road Lovettsville, VA 20180-9703 willowbend@mediasoft.net or call (540)822-5292 If any of you are like me and don't have a file cabinet full of articles ready for print ahead of time (or would like to) this $16 (plus postage) is a pretty good deal. Pamela G. Hurak ResearchVA@juno.com Editor/Publisher of THE SOUTHSIDE RESEARCHER Note: The newsletter that I publish is a regional genealogical newsletter. I'd really like to hear from an editor who works with a family or surname newsletter and know if this handbook was as interesting for someone writing from that view. Did any one else order this book?
