Review by Charleen Micheles-Scott

Every writer wishes they had a friend in the business-someone who could share up-to-the-minute insider advice for getting their work published. That wish comes true with Agents, Editors, and You!


Dozens of industry professionals provide you with essential information about a variety of topics-everything from preparing a manuscript and getting it into the hands of an editor to the finer points of e-publishing. You'll also learn what happens to your manuscript once it's accepted, and how to market your book and gain publicity. If you want to get the inside scoop on getting published in easy to understand language this books your ticket to the world of publishing. Its contains a once-in-a-lifetime round up of editors and agents who can turn your manuscript into MONEY. Through interviews and articles, they'll teach you how to navigate the publishing empires like an insider. Here's a sampling of what you'll learn:

* What are editors and agents looking for?

* What does an agent really do, and how will an agent work for you?

* How can you make your book proposal stand out from the pack?

* What should you do once you have an editor’s attention?

* What do you need to know before signing a contract?

* What happens to your book once it's been sold to a publisher?

* How do you work with an editor?

* How do you prepare and submit your manuscript?

* What can you expect after your book is published?

* How will your publisher promote the book, and how can you help?

*What do you need to know about e-publishing and self publishing?

You'll find the answer to these questions and DOZENS more in the 254 pages of this "invaluable" learning tool.

The price of the hard cover is $22.99 US/$35.99 CAN. It's tax deductible and a book no aspiring or established writer should be without.
