- Better late than never?Not!
After placing and paying for a subscription on August 27, 2008, through Amazon.com's subscription service, for The Writer magazine, and being informed that it could take up to two months for the first issue to arrive, I finally received my first month's copy, today, May 7, 2009.

- "Cosmopolitan" for writers
I subscribed to this magazine thinking it would be a good way to keep up with the trends and improve my writing. I found it a bit scary, actually.

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

- It's OK, but not as technical as I'd like
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 ... Read More
