At this time of year, many people make so-called New Year's Resolutions. It is a time when people are resolved to quit habits, lose weight, exercise more frequently, change their diet, etc. For myself, I also am making several resolutions for 2010. I want to put more energy and time in my long desired hope of completing a novel I have been working on for many months now.
One resolution for Jeanne Armonk this new year, is to get my novel ready for publication. I want to develop over my next few blog posts, the sequence of steps necessary to bring one's book from the idea stage on to publication. Various options are available to a budding author as to where to look for assistance in getting their writing into print. The internet has a plethora of sites where an author may receive encouragement and direction and constructive criticism.
So, please stay with me as we discuss these steps over the next few weeks. You will be learning right along with me as I endeavor to get my own work printed this year. Of course, I will continue to be available through my freelance writing service to assist others with writing needs.
I am also a contributing freelance writer for The Wilkes Gazette. This newspaper is published in North Wilkesboro, NC and is currently available both on the web and in print. Please read at http://www.wilkesgazette.net/ where I write the Weekly Restaurant Review, Jeanne's Travels and more recently, Living On A Budget.

- My interest with writing began by composing poems about nature in my childhood. I also co-wrote a play in my 4th grade class when I lived in New Rochelle, NY. It generated enough positive feedback that my class put on the play in the school auditorium. I was fortunate to have a lead part. After my high school graduation, I entered the working world. For over 30 years I have been steadily gaining writing, editing and digital publishing skills. I began by composing letters and emails to company clients. I contributed to articles written for The Commuters Register based in Windsor, CT. Since 2009, I have added social media, digital publishing and blogging here in Wilkesboro, NC. Since 2010, I write ad copy for the listing descriptions for each of my 3 Internet shops open at Etsy.com. In 2012, I entered a poem about my dog Red in the World Poetry Contest. The poem was chosen for publication. I have written articles for the Winston-Salem Frugal Living Examiner and Hub Pages. In 2012, I acquired The Wilkes Gazette digital newspaper that was renamed the Wilkes County Gazette in 2014. I write under both my own name and my pen name, Jeanne Armonk.
