About this title

Synopsis

This book helps you understand the business of writing so you can turn your work into money. More than 40 articles, collected from the pages of Writer's Digest magazine, answer your business and financial questions about freelance writing, from researching new markets to making business contacts, setting pay rates and understanding copyright laws. It focuses on all varieties of writing, such as commercial copy, novel writing and magazine pieces.

Review

This handbook, put together by the editors of Writer's Digest, covers soup-to-nuts terrain for anyone contemplating--or already a few steps down--the road to a part- or full-time living off freelance writing. Topics covered include breaking in (and cultivating editors once you have), tax tips, and even time management so you can get that scribing done. What this book is not is a market guide--there's no contact information in here for editors, magazines, and the like. But this tome will have you more focused, with sights set, when that contact information is on your desk.
