Christian Writers' Market Guide: The Essential Reference Tool for the Christian Writer

This book is a great resource for me. I look forward to using it regularly...contains great info and I'm happy to have my OWN copy.

I've been using Sally Stuart's Christian Writers' Market Guide since I became interested in freelance writing. No freelancer should be without it. It's important to get the updated Guide every year because the writing world is constantly changing. Magazines are going out of business, and new agents and book publishers come on the scene. As I said, this book is indispensable to the freelance writer.

Sally Stuart has done all the work for writers. You can find anything by topic, publishers, or genre aa well as lots of other things, like contests... This is an excellent resource so you don't make the mistake of sending a short story to an academic publisher and vice versa. Sure you can browse the internet and spend hours on publishing websites and keep a notebook of your virtual journey but isn't there a better way to procrastinate?! Thank you, Sally, for my new address book for writer's world - you are the best!

So if you're clinging to your 2006 book, thinking "It's still mostly right" --- you haven't been paying attention. Buy this book today and begin contacting editors whose markets fit your passion and your expertise.

The world of Christian publishing--book and magazine--is constantly in motion. Sally E. Stuart is the marketing guru who tracks these changes and captures them for the writing community.

Don't use an old guidebook because the entries are wrong. Get the current guide. It's a necessity for your writing in the Christian market.
