W RITERS T RICKS OF THE T RADE IS 5 YEARS OLD NOW . T HANKS TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR ONGOING SUPPORT Dear Readers and Contributors, Without you there wouldn’t be Writers Tricks of the Trade. So many thanks for all of the years you have supported this online magazine by writers for writers. Every quarter we received contributed articles with great advice from writers who have “been there, done that.” Others have given us permission to reprint valuable advice-filled articles from their blogs or websites. Our Life Stories feature is a wonderful opportunity to share something funny, devastating or inspirational that happened to you, someone you know or something you observed. Our first Life Story was an observation about how technology has changed everything and memories of what it was like in the 1950s. We had great response to that. This issue features an excerpt from Can We Come In and Laugh, Too? Rosetta Schwartz who was born in 1909 wrote her memoir when she was 85 but it wasn’t published for several years. Since then thousands of copies have been downloaded. Rosetta gives us a peek at what it was like growing up as the youngest of ten in an immigrant family with more humor than money.
