I’ve decided to go with the “resume” card strategy that has bulleted lists of skills and beat areas on the front, along with e-mail, phone numbers and blog site. I’m having them printed locally for a couple of reasons: (a) the online sites sugguest cheesy graphics like antique typewriters on your card if you’re a writer and (b) the paper on those sites is never of the quality you get with a local printer.

I, too, adore VistaPrint. Even with full customization, it’s affordable and very professional-looking.

In addition to the usual contact information, I’d recommend leaving a signature line or tagline that captures your writing style. That will make you more memorable. For example, my books tend to have a lot of dark, quirky comedy, so my tagline is “Brian McKenzie: Putting the laughter in manslaughter since 1987.” What do you think?

I suspect that an effective line will make an editor think “I want THAT guy.”

At the very least, I would recommend providing a line describing what kind of writing you specialize in.

I made my own personal writer card using a photo of my Underwood Noiseless typewriter at Zazzle.com and have sold quite a few of them to other writers as well. Many people have complimented me on the card and I have recieved quite a few writng assignments from it. It’s important to have a good card that stands out from the rest

There’s a lot of common sense in those words. Interestingly, much of it is applicable for other kinds of business as well and not just freelance writing.
