With so many websites, discussion boards, and forums for authors, you can get just about every opinion about how and where to get published if you look hard enough. The trouble with so many resources online is that you tend to get overwhelmed, leading to analysis paralysis.
With the Writer's Market Deluxe Edition, you get up to the minute contact information for all the places that are accepting writing, regardless what type of writer you are. The book is packed with so much information in one place that you should have little trouble connecting with an editor, publisher, or illustrator.

This book is the perfect gift for writers that you know or should be considered the bible of getting publishing for any author trying to breakthrough into publishing. Not only will you find places that are eagerly looking for new writers, you will save a tremendous amount of time just flipping through the pages and taking action! I still have all my Writer's Market books from previous years, and I am constantly using them to improve my visibility.
