Review

“With such a concise resource, writers trying to sell (or place) just about any competent piece of work will likely find not only a toehold, but quite possibly a leg up to publication.”

I purchased this book for somebody who expressed an interest in writing. I flipped through it briefly before handing it over and it seemed to cover the basics. Who (to send it to), what (to submit), where (to mail it), etc...As the title states, it is aimed at Canadian market.

Could have saved paper by getting down to facts and stopped repeating the same info most of the time. I wanted to now who wanted to receive my manuscripts not who did last year but not interested this year. Someone on an ego trip somewhere.
