Summary: Published
Comment: This book helped me get published as it made me realize some mistakes I was making about finding the right audience for my writing. There are so many areas. Some have more competition than others. This gives some information about several different types of writing and lots of places to get more information online and in other books. The author's website shows that she has published 9 books now and the 10th one is coming out soon. The book is a basic guide so readers shouldn't expect it to be an extensive resource. I needed this guide to help me find the right direction and review my skills.

Summary: a very good picture
Comment: This book gives a very good picture of how to sell and promote stories for children. There are some basic points about writing that are good to review often. The focus is on writing for children, the different kinds of stories for children, and most of all where and how to sell it. I've read lots of books about writing and selling but I especially like to keep this one handy to be sure I'm not overlooking something important. I was in a class where this was used as a text. It gave us time to learn and to critique each other's stories. I recommend it for classes and for writer's groups. It has a lot of resources you can find on the internet, books you can read, and convenient addresses like the copyright office and where to get a set of ISBN's.

Summary: Full of notes
Comment: I've made lots of notes on this little guide (that is, I write on the pages to help me refer back to special parts). It has tips for writing and submitting stories as well as advice about writing. It mentions possible markets that didn't occur to me. There are many resources in the appendix about other books in specialized areas, snail mail addresses and websites for getting ISBN's, copyright, finding printers, etc. I refer to this book often even though I've bought other longer books. It is a handy basic guide that I keep by my side. Oh, there are resources for poetry writers also.
