I'm a total newbie, and even I know Susan's advice is sound because I am willing to try it and it works. Being a newbie, I'm pretty sure your quote “This is how you do it, trust me on my advice, I’m successful,” was not written by Susan, so I'm not sure why you are quoting. @ Cindy

One or two articles in the Globe and an upcoming story in a magazine is not a lot. How do you dispense advice when you are a newbie yourself? I just think you are coming across with expertise in the writing life, but you haven't made it big enough yet to be sharing wisdom you haven't garnered. To have a blog that says, here's what I learned today is one thing. To have a blog that says, "This is how you do it, trust me on my advice, I'm successful," is another. I won't post any more. I'm not here to trash Susan's efforts, but just to suggest that she be more upfront about her true experience. Top tier still means a lot. If it were easy, everyone would be able to do it regularly. It's not. Deb, I meant qualified to be giving advice on writing. One or two articles in the Globe and an upcoming story in a magazine is not a lot.

It doesn't matter. We're just a bunch of writers sharing ideas and not one of us is better than the other.

I've been freelancing for 4+ years and I've contributed to The Boston Globe and Self magazine (article on newstands in a few weeks), among other places. I think that speaks for itself.
