Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A Handy GuideThis book is packed with practical advice that will help you get your book published. It is easy to read and comes from a reliable source.

Anyone with aspirations to become a published author should start with a copy of this on their bookshelf. Buy it, read it and then get your own book published. Simple. Martin Bamford - author of The Money Tree Rating: - This will help you build a career as an authorPreviously I have been reading books that focus on getting your own baby (read: novel) published. They seem to, in general, have the aim of building up your resistance to rejection, which they all declare you are likely to face time and time again.
