Freelance article writer Kawa-Jump has written a book designed to answer all the novice writer's common questions about getting articles published by magazines, journals, and newspapers.
Packed with proven insights and techniques, this practical manual shows writers 100 ways to sell their books, presenting each technique in an easy-to-grasp, short format. Topics include networking to generate free publicity, using the Internet, getting the most from conferences, and more.
"Thirty years ago my older brother, who was ten years old at the time, was trying to get a report on birds written that he'd had three months to write. It was due the next day. We were out at our family cabin in Bolinas, and he was at the kitchen table close to tears, surrounded by binder paper and pencils and unopened books on birds, immobilized by the hugeness of the task ahead. Then my father sat down beside him, put his arm around my brother's shoulder, and said, 'Bird by bird, buddy. Just take it bird by bird.'"
From the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of the bestselling "Den of Thieves" and "Blood Sport" comes a hands-on guide to the art of reporting and the craft of writing compelling non-fiction, featuring the techniques Stewart uses in his own work.
A professional journalist shows how to write hard-hitting news stories and attention-getting feature articles.
Written by a literary agent who has successfully placed authors' manuscripts with more than 60 publishers, this revised edition of a successful resource clearly addresses every step of writing a nonfiction book proposal, including choosing the best editors and publishers for a particular proposal.
Reminiscent of offbeat writing guides like Writing Down the Bones and Writing in a Convertible with the Top Down, here is a straightforward guide to writing based on a highly successful UCLA Writer's Program given by the author. |
