their chosen profession. Part One examines each of these possibilities; then
goes on to explore the available writers' markets and explain how they work.
Part Two provides a complete system of article submission geared to maximize
the writer's odds of getting an acceptance, while avoiding those errors that
can turn off an editor. Part Three reviews the nuts and bolts of the
profession - from idea development to contract negotiation. Author: Shirley
