Writer's Guide to Book Editors, Publishers and Literary Agents, 2001-2002 by Jeff Herman Pdf
The classic reference guide for book authors has been completely revised and updated with the names and specific areas of interest of thousands of editors at over 500 book publishing houses.
In 1889, the editor of the San Francisco Examiner, having accepted an article from Rudyard Kipling, informed the author that he should not bother to submit any more. "This isn't a kindergarten for amateur writers," the editor wrote. "I'm sorry, Mr. Kipling, but you just don't know how to use the English language." A century later, John Grisham was turned down by sixteen agents before he found representation-and it was only after Hollywood showed an interest in The Firm that publishers began to take him seriously. The anxiety of rejection is an inevitable part of any writer's development. In this book, Ralph Keyes turns his attention from the difficulty of putting pen to paper-the subject of his acclaimed The Courage to Write -to the frustration of getting the product to the public. Inspiration isn't nearly as important to the successful writer, he argues, as tenacity, and he offers concrete ways to manage the struggle to publish. Drawing on his long experience as a writer and teacher of writing, Keyes provides new insight into the mind-set of publishers, the value of an agent, and the importance of encouragement and hope to the act of authorial creation.

Dartnell's Public Relations Handbook by Robert L. Dilenschneider Pdf
One of the most important trends in recent years has been the integration of public relations into the marketing mix. No longer do corporations view it as a separate, narrow, objective tactic -- a tactic that is isolated from other marketing activities. Today, most marketers understand that public relations must be linked with other marketing disciplines. They recognize that the planning and implementation of a public relations program must harmonize with overall marketing objectives. It is no longer enough for a PR agency executive to be a great press release writer or to establish terrific media contacts. Today, many PR duties are often performed by non-PR personnel. "Dartnell's Public Relations Handbook" has been designed to guide the individual who does not perform PR duties on a daily basis, but who needs to coordinate PR efforts as one of many assigned tasks. Inexperienced PR personnel will use the handbook as a "guide" to coordinate PR efforts. The experienced PR practitioner will use this handbook as a reference tool of new techniques and strategies to help him or her excel in his or her current job. The new 4th edition includes: -- All-new case studies. -- An updated and expanded chapter on Crisis PR. -- A new series of "how-to" chapters, including: how to write a press release, develop a media kit, build a media list, develop media contacts, use the phone and fax most effectively, speak to the media, etc. -- A new chapter on how to work with a PR firm -- how to select the agency that is right for your needs, how to get the most out of your agency, and your responsibilities as a client in the PR agency partnership.
