Cooks Con Fab

It recently came to my attention via the Twitterazzi that there is an upcoming premier starring a group of like-minded Chefs who promote sustainable methods and local farms. Each event takes place monthly at a member’s San Diego restaurant and premiers an “edible-driven, Slow Food theme.” This could be cited as signaling the merging of earlier neo-realist meals and the art of California cuisine.

We had the chance to meet in Atlanta earlier this year, and she’s a wonderfully down to earth person who clearly cares about each and every one of us. I say us , because I’ve been a long-time follower myself and more recently joined her Elite Member roster, many of whom I also met at NAMS .

FTC Endorsement Rules Get Their First Workout (from CitMediaLaw)

From CitMediaLaw.org: “The Federal Trade Commission has announced that it has completed its first investigation under the “blog-ola” rules it adopted last year , which require bloggers and other social media posters who receive a free or discounted product or service to disclose the freebie in their reviews or commentary about the product or service, or face the possibility of an FTC enforcement action.  See “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising,” 16 CFR Part 255 (2010) ( html ) ( pdf ). In the end, the FTC decided not to take any action against Ann Taylor ( decision letter ), whose Loft division (formerly Ann Taylor Loft) offered gifts to bloggers who attended a January 26 “exclusive blogger preview” of the chain's summer 2010 line.” Click here to read more at CitMediaLaw.org So much for those who thought the FTC was primarily interested in going after the floggers. Besides, it's a lot easier to find Ann Taylor.

Weekly Coaching Update – Stacey Abler – April 30th

For those aren’t aware, I recently put out an offer for free one-on-one coaching for one freelance writer who was ready to leave content mills behind to pursue a more serious business. The responses were inspiring — from truly great writers who were tired of being told they should be happy and / or proud to work for mills, people with outstanding credentials who could be doing so much more. Sadly, I only have time now to work directly with one writer.

The Power of Word-of-Mouth in China

You just can’t stop the word from spreading in China — as McDonald’s recently discovered. In March, the American fast food chain invited people who had discount coupons on chicken wings from any restaurant in China — including rivals like KFC — to use them to buy McSpicy Wings at a discount

The Two Vital Attributes of Quality Content

“Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful” ~William Morris, poet and designer Imagine the household you would have if you got rid of every item that was neither useful or beautiful. Gone would be the plastic doodad with no known purpose, the ugly frame your great-aunt gave you, the Special Free Offer™ you never opened, the collection of someday-useful peanut butter jars . . .

Why Low Paying Gigs Are and Are Not Your Problem

A couple of weeks ago, I got an email from Bright Hub (a content mill I used to write for) inviting me to help them write some 60 titles for a private client commission for about $20 a pop. Another content mill, Demand Studios, recently partnered with USA Today to start providing travel tips for their website.   To some writers, these partnerships and commissions are clearly a sign that the freelance writing sky is falling and we are all going to have to be happy working for pennies before you know it
