getting started
good information. very repetitive though and doesn't show you where to find the information you would need to get started.

Wow, what a great book!
Yippee!! Great information! Should have bought this book years ago when I first saw it! Good ideas, brainstorming ideas, lots of industry information & written in a light-hearted, easy-to-read format. She recommends getting a rhyming dictionary, she includes sample forms and a workbook section. She tries to really encourage you and get you to think and work at it. She believes that if we think we have the ability to come up with good prose to give it a serious try, but she doesn't promise the moon as far as earning a living wage at this. I'll be doing it for the love of it, not my bread & butter job. I am now really eager to get started with her guidance. I can't believe I tried to do this type of work without Ms. Wigand's book. Thanks Ms. W!

Still a good introduction to writing for Greeting Cards
While written in 1992, this is still a solid introduction to freelance writing for the "social expression" market. With first hand experience, the author gives very useful information and examples for writing and selling greeting cards and related items. It's well worth the read.
