Reflections on BC 410

I can’t believe that 4 weeks has already passed and my Writing for Publication course that I dreaded at the beginning is over. When I first opened all the assignments that were due for the class I was so overwhelmed and skeptical about being able to complete this class successfully. Here we are 4 weeks later and I’m considering submitting an article or news release that I have written! Holy cow I didn’t expect that result! This class was really interesting and I learned a lot. Researching the publications in my industry was really exciting! I saw that there were so many different venues and outlets for marketing my business and also just for getting the message out about holistic care. I found publications that are now bookmarked for further reading and future resources for my publishing endeavor. I learned the importance of writing articles in 3rd person as to not offend anyone reading it and also how important it was to cite facts from reputable sources. 300 words seemed like a lot when I first started this class but then realized that it really is a very little amount and you have to be very concise in what you choose to write. This class has definitely changed my perspective about writing articles and I am going to continue on this path and see what I can get published. Thank you Cliff
