Are you new to the publishing world? Do you want to write articles for print or online magazines or a book but you haven’t got a clue where to begin to figure out how to do that?
Are you lost when it comes to finding magazines, online outlets, or other periodicals and publications to submit your work to?
Even if you know where you’d like to submit your writing, maybe you don’t know how to actually submit your article to a magazine, or your book idea to a book publisher, or your writings to an online outlet.
And what about rights? Which rights do you sell when and to whom?
Even if you could figure all that out, after you do submit what then? What do you need to know? What do you need to do next? How do you keep track of everything?
Do you wish someone would just give you the basics of writing to get published for beginners?
Dianne E. Butts remembers what it was like trying to get started in publishing. Here, in simple terms and an easy format, she shares the basics of what she has learned in more than twenty-five years in the business of writing for print magazines, online publications, and book publishers (both contributing to compilation books and submitting her own books).
Here you will learn how professional writers find magazine markets, online outlets, and book publishers who want their work. Find out how to collect valuable information on exactly what these publishers want and organize it so you’ll have it handy when you need it. See how to properly approach a publisher and format your articles, stories, and books for submission. Discover a simple way to track all your submissions and keep the information at your fingertips.
Plus, you’ll get Dianne’s “Beginning Writer’s Plan for Success” and a shopping list for setting up your writing office, all to help you get started.
This e-book was originally printed as a pamphlet Dianne created in 2003 titled The Basics for Beginners: How to Find Markets, Submit Your Manuscripts, and Keep Track of it All. It became very popular at the writers conferences where Dianne attended or was on the faculty. “Publishing has changed some since 2003,” Dianne says. “Not so much the basics, but with the addition of submitting via e-mail, added online outlets for our work, and fewer manuscripts sent through the postal mail. This e-book is an updated and revised edition of that first, popular, pamphlet for writers. Plus, I've added material from my “Writing for Publication: How to Find Markets & Submit Your Work” one-day seminar.
Bonus Articles!
Besides the updated and revised content, this e-book contains bonus material that was not included in the original pamphlet, The Basics for Beginners. Added are three articles on:
- How to Study the Market
- Book Manuscript Submissions with the basics for both Fiction and Nonfiction book proposals
-Which Rights Do I Sell When?
