Personal Review: The Complete Idiots Guide to Getting
Published, 4th Edition by Jennifer Basye Sander
Not so long ago, I got the yen to write a novel. I typed my fingers to the
bone, sent out queries and never even got a rejection letter. The Complete
Idiot's Guide to Getting Published, 4th Edition, explained clearly and
concisely the origins of the problem by beginning the book asking "Why do
you want to write?" Once that paramount question is answered the
remainder of your technique, motivation and strategy becomes clear. I
have been re-writing my earlier works, following the models and
recommendations from in this book, and now I am certain that success, a
published novel, is finally within reach. It is not enough to have passion,
you must have knowledge of how the industry of publishing operates. The
masterful, conversational style of Sheree Bykofsky and Jennifer Basye
Sander, is encouraging for those lost on the creative landscape. Their
non-ambiguous approach makes the process easily understandable with
practical steps, repetition and recognizable examples to back up their
points. If you want to take the endeavor of writing with any degree of
sober-mindedness, you must add The Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting
Published, 4th Edition, to your library.
