Book excerpt: Finding the right agent can be a bewildering, frustrating and byzantine process for beginners and experienced writers alike. How do you tell a good agent from a bad agent? What's the best way to approach an agent? What exactly does an agent do? In The Agents Directory, editor-turned-agent Rachel Vater answers these questions and more. Unlike guides that have readers sifting through page after page of listings of agencies that aren't accepting new writers, won't read manuscripts, or will charge money up-front, The Agents Directory offers an exclusive guide to the best literary and script agents looking for new clients. Each listing provides detailed, up-to-date information about the type of work each agent accepts, clients he or she represents, recent sales, contact information, and the best way to submit work. Detailed instructions for writing a query letter, complete with sample queries, help readers make a great impression on an agent. A bonus directory to writing conferences across the US and Canada provides networking opportunities with other writers, agents, and editors. The Agents Directory also includes an extensive list of writer’s organizations — invaluable resources to support a commitment to writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don't pay to promote, publicize, and market your book. The quickest ways to get free publicity for your book are to work at a writing camp (a boot camp for creative writing) and query a magazine editor to ask whether you can get a go-ahead to write an article titled, "How to Write a Syllabus for Teachinga Course In ____. (Fill in the topic of your how-to book). Use your credibility and experience to sell your books. Give three reasons why people should take you seriously and trust your credibility, commitment, and stability. Show honesty and charisma in your writing. Motivate readers by examples. Being serious and convincing, even in comedy, 'brands' your reputation with a familiar symbol, proverb, or slogan related to your skills, life experience, or expertise. Showing readers how to teach a skill or craft quickly attracts the attention of magazine and newspaper Editors. Write articles where you can mention your book. Ask "how-to" or research-based publications' editors whether you can write an article on how to solve a problem for readers of the particular specialty of the magazine. Free publicity is abundant when you solve problems or train groups with similar interests. Offer expertise in fields where instruction is welcome in research, repair, and lifestyles.
