A Writer's Roadmap to Success

This is the book I wish I'd had when I began my freelance career.I've benefited from Shirley Kawa-Jump's experience for several years as I've read her articles advising writers on everything from markets to marketing. Her "Complete Guide" is just that -- a complete guide to everything a freelancer needs to know as he begins or expands his freelancing career. I recommend this book to my writing students and to any freelancer desiring success in the writing world.

One of the BEST "How To" Guides Around!

Shirley Kawa-Jump certainly knows her stuff and wastes no time in sharing her knowledge and experiences with her audience in this great, walk you through the trade, guidebook. Everything is covered from finding the right style, sending queries, modifying your techniques and setting up your own writing business. She includes many anecdotes from other accomplished writers and inspires the reader with powerful hints to get your article published. No doubt, one of the greatest guides around!

An invaluable resource for writers at all levels

Whether you're just starting your writing career or expanding it to the magazine market, this book is for you. I've been writing various corporate communication pieces for years, and although I've always wanted to write articles for magazines, I never attempted to do so. I will now, as this book takes the mystery out of magazine publishing. Ms. Kawa-Jump has written a clear, comprehensive, and fun-to-read volume on everything you need to know to get your articles published. You'll turn to this book again and again, so grab a stack of Post-its and get started!

Writer's mentor & publications sage!

The usual problem with a book about writing is that writers tend to be stingy with their ideas. Freelance writing is a desperate enterprise, and few people want to give up actual trade "secrets"--today's reader is tomorrow's competition! I have read dozens of books that gave me tiny scraps of information, little hints, but no actual help in making the sale--and if you can't sell, you may as well pop those manuscripts in the furnace and get some use out of them.Ms. Kawa-Jump's book holds nothing back, she is a writer's guru of the highest order. Her book is full of practical advice and suggestions, and her friendly style makes you feel you have a mentor right there cheering for you. You can find the real nitty gritty in here, the meat about what it takes to be a successful freelancer and how to tweak your submissions to fit your dream publications. If you want to be a writer, fantastic. Work hard, write hard--but before you send out that query, BUY THIS BOOK.
