Review

Focus is a big piece of the puzzle in a writing career: focus on your work, on making time for it, on getting it out. This source book for SF scribes and fantasists is commendable for its focus, providing a range of information on placing speculative stories and novels (but isn't it all "speculative?"), on genre-friendly agents, contests, etc. The various markets are divided into categories--"Primary," "Other," "Overseas,"--and with this tome in hand, a strategy for getting into print shouldn't be hard to devise. Except now you actually have to do the writing.
