Writers' e-Handbook

by Jotham Burrello

WRITERS'  The How, Why, and Where Journal for Emerging Writers of all Genres The e-Handbook is a gateway into the writing world for any emerging writer, regardless of age or genre. Jotham Burrello candidly details writing instruction, the writing life, and publishing options. It's the best of digital, mixing text, video, and hundreds of hyperlinks to industry news, market research, and writing advice. Literary, speculative, YA, and romance writers and editors offer advice on writing and publishing. 
There's nothing like it on the market.  Chapters cover the art and commerce of writing--from first workshops, writing retreats, licensed properties, manuscript consultants, blogging, to finding an agent and publisher, or going it alone.

Burrello also includes important add-ons in the a sample magazine contract, book contract, marketing questionnaire, and cover letter. 

Over thirty speculative, literary, YA, and romance writers and editors offer advice, including interviews  Audrey Niffenegger, Jane Hamilton, Jay Bonansinga,  The Walking Dead ; Stephanie Kuehnert,  Ballads of Suburbia ; Terence Hawkins, Yale Writers' Conference; Joe Meno,  Office Girl ; and Isaac Fitzgerald, editor at BuzzFeed Books.
 
Writers' e-Handbook addresses the way technology is shaping the modern writers' trajectory, and is packed with advice to guide writers through the rapidly changing world of publishing, book coverage, and self-promotion. There's nothing like it on the market for writers of any genre.
