5 out of 5 stars New Senior Citizen writer.   September 29, 2008
Thomas J. Junkins Jr. (Winfield, Kansas USA)
As as Senior Citizen I am taking a Class on Creative Writing, I thought the Magazine "Writer" would help me get an insite into the world of Writing as well as some hints on writing.

I was not disappointed, I have learned from my first issue, now I am looking forward to the next issue.



3 out of 5 stars It's OK, but not as technical as I'd like   September 15, 2008
T. Fleming (Western Kansas, USA)
I subscribed to this thinking I'd take a break from Writer's Journal for awhile. Unfortunately, after my first Writer arrived, I found myself going back to re-subscribe to Writer's Journal as well. The Writer had a very nice, long, in-depth interview, but didn't have the technique articles Writer's Journal has. While the Writer had some contest notifications, etc, I felt Writer's Journal had more.

At this review I've only received one Writer, and it is unfair to base the entire magazine off one issue, so I am keeping my subscription for at least the next year.

There were a few things I really liked about the subscription:

1) it came right away--I didn't have to wait for 6 weeks, I think it started coming within the first month after I ordered.

2) It was a large magazine, not one with only 10 pages in it (as I have found when I've ordered magazines via the n et without holding a bound paper copy first).

3) It didn't seem to have the number of advertisements that Writer's Journal is full of.



5 out of 5 stars For your favorite writer   September 15, 2008

I gave a subscription to "Writer" as a gift. It arrived sooner than the site said. And the recipient has reported to me that they are enjoying the magazine.


5 out of 5 stars Just What I'm Looking For   September 14, 2008
Charlys Elaine Huerta (utah)

I'm a soon-to-be university graduate with a minor in professional writing. This magazine not only has valuable advice for newcomers into the field of writing, but plenty of contest opportunities and publishing contacts to help us get our foot in the door. I appreciate the encouragement and advise. The Writer is a good investment in the future.

Have only received one issue but I'm impressed with what I've seen. I think this was a wise purchase.
