It's an absolute MUST if you want to get published in magazines and newspapers.
Here’s what some past participants had to say about the course:
‘[I liked] the fact that Judy works in the field and brings real knowledge to the course; she's very helpful and approachable. I did a similar course elsewhere last year and I must say that this one was by far superior. What was so great about this course was the small class size that enabled us to address questions as a group. It really was a far superior course to the one I did last year! Well done!’
- Kerstin Pilz
‘The course was choc full of useful information. The presenter made it lively and informative and had fantastic industry knowledge and experience. I feel more confident and informed on how to go about pitching ideas - and coming up with them in the first place.’
- Sylvia Aitken

TIP: That is the question
Everybody knows how to use a question mark, right? Well, even some of the more common punctuation marks can cause confusion. This might seem basic to many of you, but it’s surprisingly easy to get it wrong!
The rule is quite simple – use a question mark for direct questions, but don’t use one for indirect questions. The problem is that indirect questions, when spoken, sound like a question when they’re actually statements.
Direct questions

Here’s what some recent participants had to say about the course:
‘It was easy, especially being able to log on when I had the time and then listen to the audio as many times as I needed. It also helped to be able to go back to previous audios to refresh my memory.’
- Michelle Vicki Valacos
‘Online delivery was easy and convenient. The best thing about this mode of delivery was that I was able to take a course from SWC while based in Beijing!’

Book giveaway – The Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostova
Our latest author podcast is now online and this week we interviewed the bestselling author of The Historian, Elizabeth Kostova. Her debut novel was hugely successful, even reaching no. 1 on the New York Times bestseller list. And she’s just released her follow-up novel, The Swan Thieves. Here’s some more about the book:
Psychiatrist Andrew Marlowe has a perfectly ordered life--solitary, perhaps, but full of devotion to his profession and the painting hobby he loves. This order is destroyed when renowned painter Robert Oliver attacks a canvas in the National Gallery of Art and becomes his patient. In response, Marlowe finds himself going beyond his own legal and ethical boundaries to understand the secret that torments this genius, a journey that will lead him into the lives of the women closest to Robert Oliver and toward a tragedy at the heart of French Impressionism. Ranging from American museums to the coast of Normandy, from the late nineteenth century to the late twentieth, from young love to last love, The Swan Thieves is a story of obsession, the losses of history, and the power of art to preserve human hope.
We have one copy of The Swan Thieves to give away. Just tell us which historical figure you’d like to write about and why. Send your answers to courses [at] spindriftmedia [dot] com [dot] au by Friday 9 April 2010. Remember to include your postal address.
You can listen to our interview with Elizabeth here.

Here’s what recent participant Myriam Thibault had to say about the course:
‘I've really enjoyed the course! Pam was a fantastic presenter and she had real insider's knowledge she was willing to share with us. Even if you already have decent writing skills, you'll learn plenty of useful tips during the course, such as how to write the most effective intros and transitions, how to pick and balance your case studies, or how to become an "active reader", always thinking of new feature story ideas when reading a newspaper or magazine. I'd highly recommend it!’
This course is taught by Pamela Wilson. She has worked as a freelance journalist for the past seven years. Her articles regularly appear in Medical Observer, Reader’s Digest and Health Smart.

WEBPICK: Oxymoron List
An oxymoron is a figure of speech that contains two normally contradictory words. They pop up in writing all the time – sometimes as inadvertent errors and other times as a deliberate literary device.
The Oxymoron List has hundreds of examples that have been submitted by readers all over the world. You can submit your own oxymoron or vote on those that have made the list. You’ll find many oxymorons in this list that we see every day – and don’t always see as contradictory. There are also lists of anagrams, eupemisms and pleonasms (redundant phrases).
So, if you want to practice your word play and have something to submit, visit www.oxymoronlist.net
