Dear Ellen and All:
I, too, am looking for pricing info on columns, both sydicated and 
non-syndicated. I will be approaching several of our local papers in hopes 
of selling a weekly column to one, with plans to later self-syndicate to 
non-competing papers. I would appreciate any help you could give. If you 
would rather answer me off-line, my e-mail is paradisegardener@hotmail.com.

Thanks,
Linda Nitchman
