REBEKAH off the record: Book Trailers & Other Self-Promotional Videos
http://rebekahofftherecord.blogspot.com/2012/02/book-trailers-other-self-promotional.html
Thursday, February 2, 2012. Book Trailers and Other Self-Promotional Videos. Someone sent me a link to their book trailer via twitter last night. Or at least I thought it was a book trailer while I was watching it. The images seemed totally disjointed from the text scrolling across the screen, and the music, while evocative, was also unconnected to the text and images. It turns out the trailer I was watching was an advertisement for a self-help writing program. The trailer has to make sense, the way a mo...

REBEKAH off the record: January 2011
http://rebekahofftherecord.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 27, 2011. My kid's had so many snow days. This year, I'm beginning to wonder if we should just start homeschooling! While there's nothing like sharing a cozy day at home with loved ones, there's also something to be said for a writer. Having her space and quiet time. A lot of work happens between the ears, and that's more challenging with more people in the house. My solution: put the wee ones to work! Keeping my files updated helps me keep my life in order. The subject of the book?

REBEKAH off the record: Wildlife Sighting by Moonlight
http://rebekahofftherecord.blogspot.com/2012/08/wildlife-sighting-by-moonlight.html
Thursday, August 2, 2012. Wildlife Sighting by Moonlight. The sound was what caught my attention. I looked up, presuming bats were flying near my head. Saw only the full moon. The sound grew closer, like hoof beats. I felt the breeze as the animal whizzed out of the shadows behind me, followed closely by two larger creatures. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Thursday, November 17, 2011. Disconnects stymie Mass. STEM agenda - Mass High Tech Business News. Off the record: my tech skills are so pathetic, I often describe myself as a "technidiot." (eg. I needed someone to show me how to change my profile pic on Facebook). Just because I'm not a techie doesn't mean I can't write about it. Is there a disconnect there? Disconnects stymie Mass.

REBEKAH off the record: April 2011
http://rebekahofftherecord.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 20, 2011. TIPS FOR WORKING WITH A WRITER, Part 2: feedback. Hiring a writer to handle your business communications isn't always a passive process. If you've hired a great writer, you should feel comfortable enough to set her free to work her magic on your business communications. Even still, you'll need to read the copy and provide appropriate feedback. This can be tricky. If you are not 100% satisfied with the work, don’t presume the writer didn’t take your project seriously. If key ind...

REBEKAH off the record: TRASHIONISTAS PART...?
http://rebekahofftherecord.blogspot.com/2012/02/trashionistas-part.html
Thursday, February 2, 2012. In answer to the last post: YES! I am back into the dumpster! Well, not literally. I just clean my food wrappers, fabric scraps and odd bits and save them for art projects. I don't dumpster dive. People who know me know I'm a wee bit too squeamish and pre-occupied with cleanliness to crawl, dive or even reach into a vessel filled with refuse.) The point here is that TRASHION. Will reign in my small town again for one glorious night. OFF THE RECORD: I already made some barrette...

REBEKAH off the record: My Mentor, Pete Seeger
http://rebekahofftherecord.blogspot.com/2014/01/my-mentor-pete-seeger.html
Tuesday, January 28, 2014. My Mentor, Pete Seeger. Occurred in September 2008. In Brattleboro, VT. I have heard that the singer can be ill tempered, but I have spoken with Pete a few times and interviewed him in person once, and each time he has been more warm and charming than the last. Like many other performers I know, Pete infuses each conversation with his art, in this case, the art of song. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

REBEKAH off the record: February 2012
http://rebekahofftherecord.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 3, 2012. I've started exploring my travel options for Everyday Peacemakers. There's a lot of travel required to finish researching for this book. I don't really love flying. In fact, I intensely dislike it, but it's a means to an end. She swears by the program. And I want to see it in action. Also, I want to feel what it's like to be in a nation with no military. Can you imagine? Thanks for dreaming with me. Thursday, February 2, 2012. Book Trailers and Other Self-Promotional Videos.
