January 15, 2010, Newsletter Issue #266: Save your reputation-hold that tongue

Tip of the Week

On writer lists, people love to rip apart the editor that just sent them a rejection. It is a way to vent frustration and blow off steam. But be careful. Never badmouth an editor by name, or send a letter telling the editor why they were mistaken. Editors, like most professions, talk to one another. A bad reputation with one editor can follow you to many different publishers.
