How To Get Published

Every now and then you find a real gem of a book – and I’ve found one that is invaluable for writers. It’s called the Insider’s Guide To Getting Your Book Published. Written by industry veteran Rachael Stock, this is a quick guide to the publishing world. In addition to her own experience, Stock has interviewed other pubishers, agents and editors to get a cross-section of industry perspectives.

It’s intended for first time authors and asks and answers writers’ questions on:

• the commissioning process
• choosing a publisher
• making money
• whether writers need agents
• writing a proposal
• contract negotiations
• working with publishers
• dealing with rejection

This book is clearly written and full of useful case studies. It is probably the best book on publishing I’ve read all year.
