Summary: A little correction
Comment: As the editor of this book, I think I have to make a slight correction to the comments of littleredheadsmom. She recommends Writer's Market Online, and while it is an extremely authoritative and comprehensive resource, if you're only writing fiction, Novel & Short Story Writer's Market makes more sense for your use. With NSSWM you'll get ONLY fiction markets, and not pay your money for listings you can't use--trade journals for nursing and farming, for example. Just a heads up.

Summary: A useful reference for writers
Comment: Having started to seriously write short stories, I bought a copy of this reference on the suggestion of a novelist I correspond with. It is a useful reference, indexed by subject matter of the stories. The entries for the different publishers are short, but generally contain enough information to indicate what content publishers are looking for. Address details are provided for obtaining additional information from the publishers. From the payment levels indicated (at 1954 levels, if that high), and the low percentage of manuscripts actually accepted for publication, writers (like artists and musicians) are advised to keep their day jobs. Short story writing is best approached as a hobby rather than a career.

Summary: A Must for the Fiction Writer
Comment: Fiction writers who don't have the newest edition of Novel and Short Writer's Market are missing out on the latest industry needs, submission guidelines and in-depth guidance on the writing craft. This year, there are over 600 magazine markets and more than 500 book publishers packed in between the covers.
But writers have also come to rely on the in-depth articles. From Walter Mosley to Alice Sebold, authors share their expertise on subjects like getting on the bestseller list and connecting through words. Experts also share their insight on graphic novels, strengthening your manuscript and even the daily discipline of sitting in your chair to write.
Special sections in addition to the marketing listings include:
* Personal Views
* Craft & Technique
* Getting Published
* For Mystery Writers
* For Romance Writers
* For Science Fiction/Fantasy & Horror Writers
When you've finished reading the articles, find a market for your writing whether you're looking for online publications, literary magazines, consumer magazines or book publishers. You'll also find extensive listings of writing contests and conferences for the year.
Novel & Short Story Writer's Market is the best investment you can make in your writing career. If you're a fiction writer who wants to see your work in print, you need a copy of the current year's guide in your personal library.
