Synopsis

Many writers overlook the business side of writing. Inspiration and creativity are the writer's starting point, but it takes business acumen and a professional attitude to do well in the race to bestsellerdom. In this book, the author offers detailed and helpful advice to all would-be professionals based on his own writing experience and is supported by contributions from other writers, agents and publishers. Wells considers: making the most of time and space; selling yourself and your work; how to present your work; publishers agreements and copyright; the tools of the trade; making contact with your buyers; keeping records and accounts; and other sources of potential income. A comprehensive glossary of writers' business terms and list of organisations useful to writers are also included.
