Start thinking of a better term. <br />I am so thrilled that you found "Anatomy" helpful. And congratulations on getting an agent. Keep in touch, and let me know if you come up with a better word for WFH, or flat fee. <br />PeggyPeggy Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17783764591208338610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1820711940687404006.post-1517805771949876792013-07-10T05:50:16.987-07:002013-07-10T05:50:16.987-07:00I hope your post begins the breakdown of the disda...I hope your post begins the breakdown of the disdain for work for hire. A kid who loves a nonfiction book doesn't care how it got on the shelf. Writing for hire can be even more challenging than for trade. The same level of quality, appeal, and integrity is expected--but in much less time. <br /><br />PS I received "Anatomy of Nonfiction" at the Highlights Nonfiction Seminar and it turned on the lights for me! My first nonfiction book, written after reading your book, was recently acquired by an agent. Thank you!Pat Millerhttp://www.patmillerbooks.comnoreply@blogger.com
