This indispensable guide for writers provides details of hundreds
of literary agents, book publishers, and magazines; including
contact details, types of material accepted, and how to approach
them Subject indexes for each area provide easy access to the
markets you need, with specific lists for everything from romance
publishers, to poetry magazines, to literary agents interested in
thrillers. It also provides unparalleled access to international
markets. The internet has made the publishing industry more global
than ever, with markets increasingly accepting submissions by email
(some no longer accept postal submissions at all). Other
directories have failed to respond to this, continuing to focus on
one single country, but this directory provides you with that
all-important access to overseas opportunities that are now just an
email away. And by focusing exclusively on what's important to
writers - contact details for literary agents, publishers, and
magazines - this directory is able to provide more listings at a
lower price. There are no adverts, no advertorials, and no
unnecessary articles or obscure listings padding out hundreds of
pages. Two established alternative directories both run to over 800
pages, yet one has only 204 pages of publisher, agent, and magazine
listings, and the other has only 10 pages devoted to literary agent
listings This book does better on both counts, and yet remains
substantially cheaper than either alternative. The book also
includes free access to the firstwriter.com website, where you can
find even more listings. You can also benefit from other features
such as advanced searches, daily email updates, feedback from users
about the markets featured, saved searches, competitions listings,
searchable personal notes, and more
