RE: [GWL]: syndicated column

It seems the going rate at the symposium at GWAA seems to be $1.00 a
word or a flat fee for around 350 words for $300-$350.  I think that is
more than reasonable.

Again, please share this information. This list holds great experience
and 
insight that everyone needs to know, and this is an important topic in
light 
of our discussion of newspaper and other contracts awhile ago.
Thanks,
Nellie Neal
