5.0 out of 5 stars great resource, March 21, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: 2000 Novel & Short Story Writer's Market (Novel & Short Story Writer's Market, 2000) (Paperback)
This is great. I have the Writer's Market which is good for general publishing, but doesn't really highlight the novel or fshort story in the way this book does. This offers all the small presses, large presses, the lit mags etc. as well as awards offered throughout the year. I use it all the time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Right Market Book for Fiction Writers, November 15, 2000
By 
Tami D. Cowden (Las Vegas, NV USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: 2000 Novel & Short Story Writer's Market (Novel & Short Story Writer's Market, 2000) (Paperback)
One of the first thing an aspiring writer hears is "Get the Writer's Market" from Writer's Digest. This is good advice for anyone who wants to sell their work. The problem is - too many people think there is only one 'Writer's Market.' The big one is great for someone trying different types of writing, including magazine articles or nonfiction books. But for FICTION WRITERS - this one has tailor made information.

Don't sift through page after page of magazines or publishers who don't publish fiction. This book has basic guidelines for the publishers that are looking for short stories and novels. The category index makes it especially easy to use.

And remember - when a new edition comes out - expect to buy that one, too.

Unpublished & industry green American fiction writers, you need this, and this is all you need, armed with your manuscript. You will find out how & where to send your work. You will learn who is looking for your particular brand of talent. You will see opportunities to win monetary awards, tangible printcopy (of your book) awards, and chances to travel and hole up somewhere cool like Oregon and write, write, write. What more do you want?
