A new updated edition of the essential guide for new writers. For writers, getting their work published depends on knowing who to approach and how, and where to find professional and financial assistance. The Canadian Writer's Market contains the most comprehensive and up-to-date listings available for magazines; journals; trade, business, and professional publications; newspapers; book publishers; literary agents; awards, competitions, and grants. This useful guide also offers practical advice on everything from manuscript preparation to libel law.
As a Canadian writer, it is sometimes difficult to find information about Canadian writing resources. If you go on the Internet, there are plenty of sites and listings for American writers. There are also some really good writers' market directories available, containing primarily American content. These ample resources make it seem like the United States is the only market for writers. So much so that I think we often forget that we have some really great opportunities right here in Canada. Thankfully, I picked up a copy of The Canadian Writer's Market. For easy use, this book is set up similar to Writer's Markets and Christian Writers' Market Guide with subdivisions for genres, trade publications, book publishers as well as extra resources about writing groups, agents, and competitions. In addition to these expected aspects, The Canadian Writer's Market also includes sections about scholarly and literary markets, daily newspapers, and support programs for writers. The Canadian Writer's Market is a must have for every Canadian writer.
