Ever wonder how writers approach the daunting task of writing CD reviews?
On Thursday, March 14, 2008 at 7:30PM EST, join AAJ Senior Editor John Kelman and Senior Contributor Troy Collins for an informal teleconference on the process of review writing. Not meant to be a tutorial or, for that matter, the final word on the subject, it's being conducted to provide some insight on how these two particular writers--two of AAJ's more prolific reviewers--approach the task. AAJ's guidelines, with respect to style and general approach, will also be discussed.
John and Troy will provide some brief introductory information about how they approach the task - information just as likely to identify how different approaches can be as it is certain consistencies. Moderator Robert Middleton will then follow up with a series of questions, after which he'll open things up for a Q&A, where participants can ask specific questions of Troy and John.
This will be fun and give us a chance to meet each other as well. We'll be recording the teleconference and posting it here for those who can't make the call.
To get on the teleconference, all you need to do is call this number:
712-432-1100 - PIN 1022388# (regular toll call, Iowa)
Just call in at 7:30 pm (6:30 Central, 5:30 Mountain, 4:30 Pacific) on March 14th.
To give us a feel how many people plan on attending, just reply to this post.
Look forward to meeting you all on the call.
