Okay, so maybe you aren't a "complete
idiot." But if the publishing industry's mysterious ways leave you feeling
fairly ignorant, this easy-to-read volume (hey, it's written for idiots)
can turn you into a competent insider in no time. If The Complete Idiot's
Guide to Getting Published were reduced to one sentence, it would read:
The book business is a business--so be businesslike. Don't send a query
letter on pink stationery. Don't stalk your editor. Don't bribe the sales
reps. That's obvious, but there's more. Between them Sheree Bykofsky and
Jennifer Basye Sander have sold, publicized, written, packaged, acquired,
edited, agented, and published books. They know whence they speak, and
they freely impart their well-earned knowledge here.
The first step to being businesslike is learning
the business. While Bykofsky and Sander include the usual stuff about query
letters, book proposals, agents, and contracts, they also offer assistance
on settling on a subject, information on how manuscripts become books and
how books get into stores, and advice on keeping your book in the stores

Great resource for the beginner
This is another great guide for the beginning
writer. From getting started to editing and polishing your writing, the
author covers pertinent topics most helpful for those wanting to know how
to take their writing to the next level.
Read this book, and go from wanna-be to published.
Scott
Edelstein takes away the mystery and gives the necessary tools to get published.
I went from a couple of years of knocking my head against the proverbial
brick wall to being published hundreds of times, all because of this book.
It's as simple as reading it and doing it. Within a few months of applying
my newfound knowledge I had my own weekly newspaper column. He gets specific,
none of the generalities most other "how-to" write books use, and it makes
the difference. I'm proof. |
