Book Reviews of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer's Sourcebook: Where to Sell Your Manuscripts (Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer's Sourcebook)
Book Review: Get it used and read the first 60 pages, the rest is old
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is good but cannot stand alone as a SF writer's resource. The advice from the author is in the first 60 pages, and it is good guidance. The rest of the books is dedicated to potential publishers, success stories, and some resources you may not have known about or thought of. However, being printed several years ago, expect the info to be out of date. Your best bet is to get this book used.

Summary of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer's Sourcebook: Where to Sell Your Manuscripts (Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer's Sourcebook)
Focus is a big piece of the puzzle in a writing career: focus on your work, on making time for it, on getting it out. This source book for SF scribes and fantasists is commendable for its focus, providing a range of information on placing speculative stories and novels (but isn't it all "speculative?"), on genre-friendly agents, contests, etc. The various markets are divided into categories--"Primary," "Other," "Overseas,"--and with this tome in hand, a strategy for getting into print shouldn't be hard to devise. Except now you actually have to do the writing.Art History Books
