A Must Have for anyone hoping to get published April 17, 2003
I've worked in publishing for over a decade and thought I knew it all when it came time to get my own books published. Not by a LONG shot! I bought this on the suggestion of an editor and I bet I've referred to it 32 times since I got it. It helped me get through the first and second steps of the process. Now if my agent can just get my books sold!
