Goodbye, Write Away....

Hi everyone,

I have to admit, when Ellis & I first undertook the privilege of keeping Write Away! going, I never imagined that I'd ever want to give it up. However, as things have incredibly changed personally for myself and my co-editor in this last half-year or so, we believe we've got to let WA! go. It's sad, we know...

How did this come about?
Well, frankly, in my personal excitement to see WA continue, maybe I didn't realize that I had so much on my hands already. I've found that the lack of time has made it harder to keep up the quality of the magazine and the organization and communication associated with working with all our authors. In short, both Ellis and I have been short for time for Write Away; and what's worse - we don't potentially see any extra time coming our way in the future either.


Also, just so everyone knows, the blog and the website will stay put. You will still be able to go to both places and see & download the information there. However, the monthly assembling of articles & stories will stop and we won't be offering to mail the printed version anymore. We reluctant about having to do all this, especially since we personally enjoyed WA! so much, but we trust you all will understand.
I would like to kindly ask you to either email me, or comment on this post, and share your thoughts. Even if Write Away-ers have to part ways, you all as friends and writers never have to give up your connection with us! Keep writing and stay connected. Who knows? Maybe someday, WA! will come back bigger and better than ever before.

Thank you all for helping us out during this short, sweet existence of Write Away! and may God bless you all.

The Prices For Write Away In Print

The WA! Giveaway for 5 Free January issues is almost done, with only 1 free
copy left! But I think the giving fun isn't done... :)

We have stated our purpose as WA! to be a service and an help, not an extra cost, to writers-- and we want to live up to that purpose. That's why we are changing the "rules" just a bit in regard to Write Away! Magazine subscriptions.


When we considered it, $10 for 12 issues sounds like a lot (especially when many of you may not have even seen our work yet!) So we decided to offer a few deals for subscriptions. They are listed below:

Full Year Payment or Incremented Payment

You may pay the full price for a year's subscription ($11.50) all at once, or you can pay the amount in any other method of payment over time. We will not hold you to a full year's payment though because we print each of the issues the month before , and not yearly in advance. You pay for WA! magazine only for the months you ask for.

[Stamp payment section omitted for editing.]


Don't Forget WA!... Webzine

You may not think this is a deal per se, but it is! If you would like to have WA! monthly emailed to your inbox as an attachment to be opened in Word (97-2003), please email us with your own address and we'll put you on the list!


Try It Out!
While we offered the Giveaway to only 5 people, we think it'd be great to let more who are truly interested to request 1 Free issue also, at no cost. See if you like it first, then decide if you'd like to subscribe.



We wish we didn't have to charge anything to produce Write Away! magazine, but since that is the case, we hope you understand and still continue to support and contribute to WA!
If you'd like to take us up on any of these offers, just kindly copy the text above, and email it to us!
Many thanks,
Hannah & Ellis

By Mail or By Web?

Can I Still Get W.A. In the Mail?

Absolutely.

From talking to various Write Away-ers and looking at our poll here on the side> , it appear that a good many of you prefer getting WA in the mail. And we say: "No problem!"
Even though we will still be publishing WA monthly on the website(http://sites/google/com/site/writeawaywebzine )--for FREE --we are also going to offer to again a printed version of Write Away to be mailed to your home.

For Everything There Is a Price

At least WA's worth it!

Postage & printing costs were our main concern when we decided to keep offering mailed WriteAway issues. That's why the price this year is $10 for 12 issues, per subscription. For just that much money, you can get a full-color, printed version of Write Away mailed to you every month.

If you'd like to do that, just remember to email us and tell us you are requesting the mailed issues, and we will get back to you with our mailing address ASAP.

We Want To See Everybody Happy

And that includes you!

If you have any ideas, questions or suggestions about the mailing of WA, feel free to contact us. We want to make this Writer's network and magazine works for everyone. :)
