There's money to be made in this field but it's not easy. It requires commitment, flexibility, persistence, and a willingness to rewrite what you may consider the perfect novel. While the market continues to grow for romance writing, especially with the tremendous growth in electronic books, the market has always been good for talented writers who know how to follow the rules and their hearts!

The Ultimate Writer's Reference
Any writer seeking publication, whether in book form, consumer or trade magazine articles, or TV and movie scripts, should have the 2001 Writer's Market on his or her bookshelf. Newly updated, this latest edition is bigger and better than ever with more market entries than ever before and a user-friendly format and style. Combine that with extensive insider and industry information and comprehensive indexes, and you have an indispensable resource for writers. But this gem offers much more, including inspiration, practical advice, how-tos, and insider hints. Interviews with bestselling authors, advice from book and magazine editors, a clinic on writing query letters, and a review of what's hot and what's not in the current market make this book one of the wisest investments any writer could possibly make.

A typical entry includes contact names, pay rates, phone and fax numbers, email addresses, average response times, and guidelines on what to send and who to send it to. Symbols used as headers indicate markets that are new to this edition, those that accept only agented submissions, those that are freelance-friendly and those that are not. Cable TV and online markets are also noted, and for those seeking a certain level of pay, symbols that categorize pay ranges can make searching faster and easier. With over 8,000 editorial and industry contacts, the

2001 Writer's Market is clearly one of the most valuable tools any writer could have and the closest thing to knowing someone on the inside.

There are listings for consumer and trade magazines, for literary agents, for book publishers and book producers, small press publishers, and syndicates. The greeting card market is also included, as is information on various contests. The resource section includes online sites, various organizations, and a glossary of industry terms. The advice section provides interviews with bestselling authors as well as articles and information from those who have found their first publishing success. And for those who are a bit more experienced, a section detailing the business aspects of writing covers everything from what rights a writer can sell to handling finances and taxes. Given the incredible amount of information included in this annually updated reference, it's easy to see why more than four million copies have sold. And it's hard to imagine any writer who is serious about publication not having one.
