The Writer's Friend: Behind the Scenes with Editors

by Linda Davis Kyle, Joseph Gregg, Nancy McAlary

The Writer's Friend is perhaps the first book to show how magazine editors view writers and how editors would like writers to change. More than 40 editors from around the world reveal what writers must know and do to boost their sales. TWF not only puts you in the shoes of an editor, but also it shares a wealth of information from a fistful of authors from Canada, the United States, and Australia to light your way in the sometimes cold and stormy sea of the writing world. It also includes an appendix of leading questions and a user-friendly index. The cumulative power of 20 rapid-read chapters can greatly improve aspiring writers' relationships with editors.
