This review is from: The Everything Get Published Book (Everything) (Paperback)

The Everything Get Published Book is a definitive, step-by-step, "how to" instructional guide for turning book ideas into published works. Peter Rubie's easy-to-follow instructions on how to write proposals, get an agent, attract the attention of editors and publishers are solid, sound, and essential. Peter Rubie draws upon his expertise and experience as a veteran of the publishing industry, having been an editor, authors, and presently, a literary agent with his own firm of Perkins, Rubie and Associates in explaining how the publishing industry really works and how to adapt to the system and get published. The Everything Get Published Book is enhanced for the aspiring author with hundreds of names of book publishers, executives, and literary agents. Also covered is the new phenomena of electronic publishing, writing seminars, author networking, and a great deal more!

5.0 out of 5 stars Read; Heed; Send Your Manuscript!, April 25, 2000

This review is from: The Everything Get Published Book (Everything) (Paperback)

As an author - The Ghostwriter Mystery Series - and thenon-fiction, Foxy Forever ...and a very happy client of the PeterRubie Literary Agency - I suggest you buy, read and heed his advice!When I started working on Ghostwriter, I had no idea that my idea could become a series! However, my agent, Peter Rubie, knew and sold my proposal as a three book deal. The invaluable tips of the trade that he shares in this comprehensive, fun-to-read text book can be your path to publication. I'm thrilled that Peter opted to use my Ghostwriter proposal as a fiction sample in his The Everything Get Published Book. I teach workshops at the Writer's Center in Bethesda, MD and at the Florida Center for the Book in Fort Lauderdale. Peter Rubie's book has been added to my program!
