greeting card writers? how do you get jobs?

We Answered:

Juice, a writing forum where I'm a member has a Greeting Cards board with people who sell their writing to card manufacturers. (I'm not among them, but I know several from other parts of the board.)

Check out http://absolutewrite.com/forums/index.ph… and look around. I'm sure the Greeting Card board will have people with direct experience who can show you the ropes.

Your best bet in doing this, will be to start your own company. You will probably make more in the long run anyway.

Patsy Said:

How do I get job working for Hallmark?

We Answered:

I was going to ask the same question! I wish I had an answer for the both of us. I have heard you can mail them in a poem and if they use it they will pay you for it, but I don't know how much truth there is in that. I hope you get some good answers I'll be checking back!

Brandy Said:

Do different grammatical rules apply to greeting cards compared to writing?

We Answered:

Greeting Cards are informal communications and very often violate (flout) grammatical rules. However, every greeting company usually has one line of cards that are old-fashioned and conservative -- condolence cards, religious cards-- and there grammar and syntax rules are carefully observed.
The prospective employer also wanted to see how deep your knowledge of grammar and proof-reading went, so that you would be able to make instant decisions when a line looked funny when it wasn't supposed to. Greeting card companies take extraordinary measures to ensure the quality of their product. There's nothing like some ludicrous greeting card line being read out loud on late night TV by a sarcastic Jay Leno to sink a company!
