| Writing Advice: What Happens After You Get Published? |
|
By Sherri A. Stanczak
No matter how long we have been writing – a few months or several years – if we are a writer, it is in our blood. We can’t help it. If writing is in our blood, our life-long dream is usually to get a book published. No matter how many times we see our work in magazines, we don’t want to quit until we get a whole book with our name on it. We dream of that day when we see our book at Border’s Waldenbooks and Barnes and Noble. We sometimes imagine ourselves at a book signing with people lined up out the door to get our signature.

|
By Bruce Boston
I've been submitting work to small press magazines for nearly forty years. I've damned small presses to the deepest pits of Hell and sworn I'd never send them another syllable.

| Writing Advice: Dazzling Queries |
|
By Teresa Slack Whenever I speak to a group of writers someone in the room will ask what to include in a query. Writing a book is tough enough, but getting the attention of a publisher or agent once it’s finished makes the writing process look like a walk in the park. You have about two seconds to hook them enough to keep reading. They don’t know how talented you are, and telling them won’t win you any fans. You’ve got to show them, and fast.
