5.0 out of 5 stars I wasn't sure, but I tried the site anyway, September 11, 2003
After reading a Writer's Market review that said the site has more info than the book, I decided to try out the site. And even after only a few days of being on it, I've got to say--it rocks!

There is a lot more information. There are tons of market listings, which is the main reason I buy the book, but there's also a section filled with answers to reader questions about book publishing answered directly by literary agents. And there's a huge archive of articles on marketing your writing.

On top of that good stuff, there are neat features like the Favorites Folder and Submission Tracker--that helps you keep track of your submissions without using 3X5 index cards, or random pieces of paper.

And amazingly, it all costs the same as the book! I mean, I don't think there is a better deal out there, and I'm really confused by the earlier posts that seem to dog this site.

The book has helped me make several sales over the years, but this site should help streamline my marketing efforts so that I can make even more. Or I might use that extra time to get a little sleep.

5.0 out of 5 stars As always, the best tool there is, September 10, 2003
I'm shocked at these negative reviews! This book and its companion website have been indispensible for me. The sheer breadth of markets and contact info is enough to make it worth it, but I also love the search capabilities of the website and the submission tracker, which I use every time I send out a query or get a response. No need for vast index card files anymore; now I can just click to find out if I've submitted to a market before, which editor responded, what the feedback was, etc.

There is no better book for writers looking for markets for their work. Whether you write books or articles, you're bound to find appropriate publishers here-- usually with website and e-mail addresses included along with the pay rate and what each one is looking for. This series represents a tremendous amount of research and saves me a ton of money and time in tracking down writer's guidelines and trying to ascertain needs, contact info, rates, etc. for each publication.

I found my first paying markets in the Writer's Market many years ago, and have bought the book every year since then. I wouldn't have a career without it, and now I can't imagine doing without the online version, either. If I just came up with a great idea for an article about a health topic, I can search (with one click) to find out which high-paying magazines publish health articles, accept queries by e-mail, and have websites.

In addition, the "What to Charge" section is back and fully updated, and the usual good advice fills the pages of this book. The greeting card markets have been moved to the online version only, but otherwise, the book is just as excellent this year as it always has been.

--Jenna Glatzer, author of Outwitting Writer's Block and Other Problems of the Pen

5.0 out of 5 stars BOOK AND WEBSITE BOTH WORTH THE MONEY, September 11, 2003
By A Customer
AS ALWAYS THE 2004 WRITER'S MARKET IS CHOCK FULL OF PLENTY OF MARKETS FOR MY WRITING. I WAS DISAPPOINTED TO LEARN, THOUGH, THAT THE GREETING CARD SECTION HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE BOOK AND PLACED ONLINE. THESE MARKETS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A RELIABLE SOURCE OF INCOME FOR ME (AS HAVE MANY OF THE MAGAZINE MARKETS), SO I WENT TO THE BOOK'S WEBSITE AND PURCHASED A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION SO THAT I COULD GET THE MARKETS I WANTED. I DID NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT THE WEBSITE, BUT WHEN I GOT THERE, I FOUND THAT THERE ARE MORE MARKETS THAT ARE NOT EVEN LISTED IN THE BOOK. I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO GET A YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION ONCE MY MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION RUNS OUT.
