Writer's Market Guide

I'm a firm believer in checking the "Writer's Market" guide to find possible publishers for your manuscript. I spent several days pouring over the pages in the book, until I finally purchased a new copy of "Writer's Market" and it came with an online information packet. It was a godsend. The online version is much simpler to use, (and takes up less space), than the printed copy and can be renewed every year. The referencing guide, as well as the index which allows you to quickly find publishers and agents who are looking for new talent, is indispensable!

There are also several good tips about writing your query letter, how to choose a market for your book, and what to include in your query. Make sure that you read the referenced material so that you can put yourself forth in the best light possible. Good luck and keep writing!
