  4. Hi readers--thanks for the great questions and the enthusiasm!

    Jenny--I have so many favorite authors and journalists. I really love Leora Tanenbaum, the feminist writer and author of several books about women's issues, most recently BAD SHOES AND THE WOMEN WHO LOVE THEM, about how high heels can really hurt your feet. I'm also a big fan of David Sedaris, Curtis Sittenfeld, and Jane Pratt.

    I definitely recommend that up-and-coming writers get a community of fellow writers that they know and can collaborate with and can swap the things that they're working on to edit and critique for each other. When you're going at it alone as a writer, it's so important to have people to make it a fun, teamwork-y experience.

    Sarah--The next book in the series will cover how to make job hunting fun, how to start freelancing and starting your own business when you're sick of job hunting, and how to hold the makers of the recession responsible by not using credit cards and buying local.

    Rea--I was an English major! :)
