Nick Belardes Shares Secrets to Being a Writer (Part 2 of 4)

Professional writer and journalist Nick Belardes graciously took some time out of his schedule to speak to students in my ENGL-227 (Professional Writing) class at the DeVry University center in Bakersfield, CA. He spoke to the students about what it means to be a writer and shared his own experiences for nearly two hours.

I edited his presentation into four parts this video is Part 4 of 4. Each of the four videos is centered on a different theme, as follows:

Part 1: Nick explains how being a professional writer is like being Indiana Jones (9:10) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbIZ9WBq57E


Part 2: Nick illustrates why you must be a "Terminator" to be a writer (5:46) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0CIZAHzxiE


Part 3: Nick offers advice on how to "be" a writer and how to get published (8:01) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5alevkRbjI


Part 4: Nick shares his thoughts on "success" as a writer and offers insight on what it means when your "job" is also your passion. (3:11) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fXdM0dhZiw

Note: I edited the video with a trial version of Corel Video Studio 12 and was impressed with the overall experience -- I will definitely buy it once the trial period ends!
