* Posted writing log.
* Read FundsforWriters, FFWSmallMarkets, 3 Publisher's Lunch, Writer's Digest, Duotrope, Critters, OWW, WritersWeekly newsletters.
* Article on the 1,000 True Fans marketing model, with useful resources: http://www.kk.org/thetechnium/archives/2008/03/1000_true_fans.php/

Tamarind-Teriyaki Stir-Fry Sauce
Make with vegetable and protein sources of your choice, but this is a good sauce.

2 c. tamarind drink (we used off-brand tamarind kool-aid)
1/2 c. garlic teriyaki sauce
3 dried red chilies, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 cubes bouillon (I used chicken, but it depends on what your protein source is)
