Great book, one problem,
By A Customer
This review is from: Novel & Short Story Writer's Market: 2,000+ Places to Get Your Fiction Into Print (Paperback)
In at least one instance (an important one when looking to submit scifi or fantasy novels to big publishing companies), the entry for a company (Daw Books) conflicts with the submission guidelines given by the company website. While it's not a huge problem, it serves only to confuse the writer. All in all, this book has been a valuable resource, well worth a writer's money.

A little correction,
By Anne Bowling (Cincinnati, Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Novel & Short Story Writer's Market: 2,000+ Places to Get Your Fiction Into Print (Paperback)
As the editor of this book, I think I have to make a slight correction to the comments of littleredheadsmom. She recommends Writer's Market Online, and while it is an extremely authoritative and comprehensive resource, if you're only writing fiction, Novel & Short Story Writer's Market makes more sense for your use. With NSSWM you'll get ONLY fiction markets, and not pay your money for listings you can't use--trade journals for nursing and farming, for example. Just a heads up.

A useful reference for writers,
By
This review is from: Novel & Short Story Writer's Market: 2,000+ Places to Get Your Fiction Into Print (Paperback)
Having started to seriously write short stories, I bought a copy of this reference on the suggestion of a novelist I correspond with. It is a useful reference, indexed by subject matter of the stories. The entries for the different publishers are short, but generally contain enough information to indicate what content publishers are looking for. Address details are provided for obtaining additional information from the publishers. From the payment levels indicated (at 1954 levels, if that high), and the low percentage of manuscripts actually accepted for publication, writers (like artists and musicians) are advised to keep their day jobs. Short story writing is best approached as a hobby rather than a career.
