Packed With Info for the Fiction Writer,
This review is from: Novel & Short Story Writer's Market (Paperback)
The fiction writer's ultimate resource is celebrating its 25th year in print. The writing opportunities within the 500+ pages cover everything from contests to book publishers.
The complete market list includes: * Small Circulation Magazines * Online Markets * Consumer Magazines * Book Publishers * Contests and Awards * Conferences and Workshops One of the most informative sections of the book is "The Business of Fiction Writing." These nine pages show you exactly how to approach the various markets and offer sample cover letters and queries. You also get writing help from authors like Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Ford, interviews with authors like Big Fish's Daniel Wallace and specific tips for romance, mystery and science fiction writers. What makes this annual guide a must year after year are the hundreds of pages of listings. Contact info, market needs, submission terms, pay rates and so much more valuable information are updated every year. You could spend an entire year trying to locate a fraction of these potential homes for your work on your own or you can get the current year's guide and focus on your writing.

If You're Serious About Selling Your Fiction...,
This review is from: Novel & Short Story Writer's Market (Paperback)
...you need this annual guide to markets. More than just a "phone book" of publisher's addresses, Writer's Market does the yearly job of giving the lay of the land to beginners and seasoned writers alike.
You'll enjoy articles on the art and craft of fiction writing, and find plenty of "insider tips" from authors, agents, and editors. Get your copy, study it, and start selling your work.
