The best of the best
I first became acquainted with WRITERS¿ MARKET many, many years ago while working (for other people) in publishing. But I hadn¿t bought an ¿updated¿ version of the book since 2003, so finding this latest edition was a welcome thing indeed. The good thing about this book----all editions----is that it really put it on the line as far as what you need to do, whom to contact, and how to go about things. While not everything will work for everyone, the majority of the information is helpful, up-to-date, and easy to follow. And the 2005 & 6 version has finally caught up with the Internet and all the marketing possibilities out there for that. Only a few places did I question the book¿s recommendations. (I was reminded of McCrae¿s Katzenjammer at one point with its ¿Here¿s what you need to do to get an agent take-off¿¿hilarious look at what it took one person to get published), but other than that, I found the WM to be a gas. Whether you¿re an established author, someone wanting to self-publish, or anything in between, WM 2005 or 2006 is the book for you.
