Announcing the 40th Edition of Novel & Short Story Writer’s Market!
Writer’s Market editor Robert Lee Brewer announces the 40th edition of Novel & Short Story Writer’s Market, edited by Amy Jones and the most trusted guide to getting your fiction published.
Recently, I announced the release of the 100th edition of Writer's Market, also known as "the big book on getting published." But I'm also excited to announce the impending release of the 40th edition of Novel & Short Story Writer's Market!
Whenever I start discussing the Market Books, I'm inevitably asked the million dollar question: What's the difference between Writer's Market and Novel & Short Story Writer's Market? Well, it's pretty simple: Writer's Market is the "big book" that covers everything related to publishing, while Novel & Short Story Writer's Market really hones in on the process of getting your fiction published.
An analogy I like to make is that Writer's Market is kind of like the Walmart of the Market Books in that it has the most overall listings and a little bit of every type of listing (including markets for poets and nonfiction writers), while Novel & Short Story Writer's Market is like a specialty store that doesn't have everything under the sun, but it really does deep dive into its niche. In this case, Novel & Short Story Writer's Market is the specialty book dedicated to getting your fiction published, whether flash fiction or a series of novels.
As such, this 40th edition of Novel & Short Story Writer's Market is filled with great articles dedicated to writing and publishing your fiction. It also has more fiction-related listings than Writer's Market. If your primary goal is to get your fiction (and only fiction) published, this truly is the guide for you.
Until next we meet, keep writing and marketing what you write.
