Free Daily Quote
Before WriterSpeaker.com was released there were fewer quality ezines
for writers and speakers. Today there are some excellent ezines to educate and encourage writers and speakers to reach their goals.
I have come to the realization that this ezine might not be the best use of my time and I have decided to change my focus.
I love quotations and use them often in my writing and speaking. I am a member of several discussion lists for writers and
speakers and with increasing regularity someone asks where to find quotes and how to manage them. There are a plethora of quote
sites online and countless books of quotations for those interested in using quotations in their work. It doesn't take long to
realize what's needed to effectively use those quotes, without killing precious time in your day, is a piece of software to help
you store and manage your quote collection.
My husband, Gary, is a software developer and together we are working on a piece of software for writers, speakers and others
who enjoy quotes. The program will be filled with thousands of quotes with a powerful search functionality. Users will be able to
search by topic, theme, words or phrases, authors and more. Adding and deleting quotes will be easy and there will be a record
keeping function too.
Because a project of this magnitude takes a massive amount of work, and I am
still working on multiple writing projects, I have decided to look
at how my time is used each day. In place of the ezine I am offering
a Daily Quote service for those interested in subscribing. Each
day you will receive a quotation in your email. As we get closer
to having a finished product, I'll also include information about
the quote program. Go to
the subscription page to subscribe to this new service.
I have listed several ezines you might wish to explore if you'd like to continue getting writing and speaking articles and inspiration
in your email. I wish you all the best in your writing and speaking endeavors.
Writer and Speaker Ezines and Newsletters
The Internet is filled with a growing number of resources for both writers and speakers. You can visit my
resource page to find sites of interest
to writers and speakers. Writerspeaker.com
is filled with hundreds of resources along with detailed site descriptions.
Since I am moving in a new direction and will no longer be publishing my ezine I'd like to suggest several writer and speaker
related email newsletters, ezines or Web sites.
