Marketing Yourself as a Freelance Writer
by Elizabeth Lucas Taylor

Elizabeth Lucas-Taylor is an accomplished and prolific writer with a wide range of genres among her publishing credits. She's written everything from top notch fiction to poetry to cook books. This latest endeavor is the result of meticulous research and is surely the definitive work of its kind so far.

The book is laid out in sensible, logical, easy to read style. To mention only a few topics included in the helpful "how to" section are preliminary actions to be taken by the writer before actual submission: how to create a freelance or corporate media kit; contracts and talking to an editor; navigating currency exchange rates in foreign markets; manuscript formats and styles; and how to pitch your work successfully.

The next section covers information such as resource boards online for freelancers,
screenwriting, grants and fellowships, frequently asked questions,, and promotions. These are only a few of the topics you will find in this section of the book. All are spelled out in detail, in ways that will benefit the writer.

The final section lists paying markets of every type imaginable, listed alphabetically Included in this section are more than a thousand markets with the latest websites, with guidelines, contact names and email addresses where available. I've never seen a larger, more meaningful list of resources anywhere to date.

This helpful handbook should be a must have for any writer who ever considered freelance work, even in passing. Any information you could possibly want or need is between these covers. The book is literally packed with information. There is no white space, no fillers, so book buyers get amazing bang for their spending bucks.

To reiterate, if you have considered submitting freelance writing anywhere, this book is a must have.
