Writer's Handbook Reviews

'The book no writer should be without.' - The Times 'A wise and witty book, packed with useful information.' - The Society of Authors 'There's a perception that you can't get into publishing if you're not connected, but I didn't know anyone. I got my agent by looking in The Writer's Handbook.' - Madeleine Wickham (aka Sophie Kinsella) 'The Writer's Handbook is an essential directory for new and established writers alike.' - Mary Clemmey, Literary Agent 'If you want to write and be published, this book should never be more than a hand's reach away.' - Christine Aziz, author and winner of Richard and Judy's How to Get Published Competition 'This book is a godsend to any serious writer.' - Martin Brocklebank, Chairman, Speakeasy Writer's Group '...an essential guide to the present state of publishers.' - GF Willmetts, SF Crowsnest
