What a terrific resource! I thought all the writing books out there had said it all. And then I read your book. You actually have the magic answers! This book excels in showing writers how to specifically target markets in a way that I've never seen another writing reference do. [Weaver's] information is useful and helped me look at my own articles and queries in a new way. [A] spectacular e-book! Can't stand to read on the screen? Buy a ream of paper and an extra ink cartridge and print it out! Yes, this book is worth the effort. [Meg's Foolproof Acceptance Test] is really one of the few truly useful tools I've seen among the veritable avalanche of freelancing material. I read your e-book from start to finish and absolutely loved it! There are many new ideas in your book that I will put to good use - and I am finding your web site to be a valuable resource, as well. Wonderful! I've never stopped to analyze my markets in that way before to see how well my submissions will fit and [now] it makes so much sense! I recommend this book highly to anyone who wants to write. I also invite some editors to read Chapter 3, Writer's Guidelines. They, like I, could learn a lot. Nothing beats Weaver's take on writing query letters. She won't just tell you how to write a winning query letter - she'll even show you how to write one.
