Reviews
"The eBook is an absolute bargain at $9.95. Considering that the markets listed pay high, you may get back nearly 5 to 10 times your investment back with just one assignment!"--Pooja Srinivas, CoursesUSeek.com

"Making connections is always a good thing, but here people also get to share information: pay rates, markets, who may no longer be in business, what companies no longer accept certain types of submissions. This is valuable to those searching and appreciating their time not being wasted. The pay rate information shared is great! You could easily find yourself in a position of negotiation that you'd never known existed. Rating: 10."--Sam Knight, SellWritingOnline.com

"Not only does she include absolutely essential information, but also goes all the way to obtain interviews from industry experts who talk about insider secrets and the best ways to get started. Added to this are more than a hundred pages of markets with neatly assimilated information regarding current pay rates, requirements, submission procedures and much more."--Mridu Khullar, WritersCrossing.com
"For writers or artists wanting to get into this
market, this is a very useful reference tool. The book
should be considered as the effort of a busy and
successful writer to offer the reader some immediately
useful and relevant information that will help earn
income, and to obtain a fair payment in return for her
time spent in trying to do so. Considered as a 'value
given for value obtained' business transaction, this
book succeeds admirably."--Ron Litton, eBook Reviews Weekly (http://www.ebook-reviews.net)
