The News on Tuesday, Oct. 21: The Daily Candy

Tonight, Brooke Siegel, editor of the Miami Daily Candy, will be our guest at Blog On! Writing for the Web at the Florida Center for the Literary Arts. The Daily Candy is a daily email newsletter and web site. A blog is a web log. We know the difference. But writing for the web is all the same.

Daily Candy

How did you get involved?

Why do you enjoy your work?

What don’t you like?

What do u think of the difficulty in knowing the difference b/w fact and fiction? Everything seems to b PR in corporate media, is that what Daily Candy essentially is now? (since it was sold- kind of like the Sassy Magazine effect)?

How do you decide what to hyperlink and what NOT to hyperlink?

Does it help to appear in local glossy magazine society photos to get more traffic to the web site?

Can you describe how a story begins from seed to publishable article?
