The Writer's Handbook is an annual guide for writers which is
packed with practical advice and places to submit your
writing, whether it is an article, poem, short story,
or novel. Each year the guide includes
updated market listings, new articles and lists of current
conferences, contests and writing workshops.
This first part of this year's edition includes interviews
with Jonathan Franzen, John Irving, Sue Miller,
Anita Shreve and other bestsellers. Valuable advice
that both inspires and informs is contained in essays
from Terry McMillan, Elmore Leonard, Ursula Le Guin,
Vanessa Grant and others. The second part of the
book contains the market listings, which also include
listings for conferences, colonies, prizes and awards.
In addition to a large number of
fiction and nonfiction markets, the
book also includes markets for other types of manuscripts,
including greeting card publishers, play publishers,
syndicates and television and film products.
The markets listings themselves are brief, but contain
all the necessary details such as contact information,
needs of the publisher, payment information and
tips for writers.
This year's edition of the Handbook contains over 3,300 potential markets for writers. It also contains some excellent advice from bestselling authors, covering subjects writers often have questions about: rights, queries, clips, point of view, writer's block, marketing and research. Writers looking for a large collection of both professional advice and good paying markets in one source can't go wrong with the always-reliable Writer's Handbook.
