About Two and a Half Writers

    Two and a Half Writers is the brainchild of mother-daughter writers Sandi Johnson and Roxann Conger. We wanted to create a place where new writers could come to learn about the craft of writing and what it takes to get published. When you're just starting out, it can be hard to figure out what you need to learn. We want to shorten that learning curve.

Everyone has a Best Friend. You know, that person who knows all you secrets, and you know all theirs. That kid you hung out with after school, knew their favorite color, favorite pair of shoes, favorite musical group, who they had a crush on, who they denied having a crush on even though you knew [...]

A Publisher Just for You

In the traditional publishing world, there aren’t a lot of people who are willing to take a chance on an unknown novelist. It’s just not a good financial risk for them. Understandable. It takes a big financial committment to get a manuscript from raw state to a finished book, and then market it enough to get [...]

Should You Create a Profile or Page?

Facebook has been in the spotlight these last several days. Rolling out their new “Like” button, the whole personalizing open graph thing, it’s a lot to take in if you aren’t already familiar with the platform. But the question of “fan”-ing or “liking” a page got me to thinking. (yes, backing away from the slightly [...]
