Our little company was born 18 years ago in a Jersey City apartment, and, against all odds, it’s paid our mortgage, put food in our dog’s dishes and baseball cards in our son’s pockets. If we’ve learned anything about building a business during this time, it’s this:
Be generous with people, and people will be generous in return.
I didn’t always buy into that notion. When we first put our website up (way back in 1995) it seemed crazy to give away so much information and I had to be dragged along kicking and screaming. But, wow, I’m sure glad I got on board. Since that time, we’ve given away a lot of stuff, asking only goodwill in return. I have no doubt it’s one of the big reasons CBI is where it is today. If you’re struggling to make it as a writer, I urge you to consider a similar path. Give of your talents, help others who need it and be a mentor — and the big wheel o’ karma will surely spin your way.
Right. Time to get off the soapbox and give you what you came for — [tag-tec]free stuff[/tag-tec]! We’ve got all kinds of goodies scattered around the web site and they can be tough to find. I bet, for example, you didn’t know that we have a free ebook called Robert Louis Stevenson on the Art of Writing. It’s really an outstanding read and it’s waiting for you, along with a bunch of other things that won’t cost you a dime.

Enjoy!

Nice post. I learn something more challenging on different blogs everyday. It will always be stimulating to read content from other writers and practice a little something from their store. I’d prefer to use some with the content on my blog whether you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a link on your web blog. Thanks for sharing.
