  Everybody ought to have one hard copy February 12, 2005 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
"The" book for aspiring writers, everyone should have at least one copy. After that, the online service is maybe all you'll need. With a universe full of places to publish and agents to get you pubished and great articles by people like Jenna Glatzer, I've yet to see every page of my hard copy. I do, however, make constant use of the online service available with the purchase of the book. Online data mining makes for much quicker finding of what you need, as well as record-keeping of what you've sent where.
  Don't Waste Your Money November 15, 2003 14 out of 21 found this review helpful
There is almost nothing new over 2002 and 2003, and there is nothing in the cd that you cannot get more cheaply on line. They have a connection with Writersmarket.com (a sloppily run outfit--don't give them a credit card). The book is better in the non on line version (That's a 4 star).
  Simply a 'must' for any aspiring writer October 19, 2003 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
The yearly updates of the "Writer's Market" have become the would-be and professional writer's Bible, packed with the latest information on publications seeking work and paying for writings. This edition includes free access to writersmarket.com, a searchable database of all listings, in addition to its usual emphasis on submissions guidelines, contact names and payment info. The inclusion of Canadian and many international publishers makes for an important guide which is simply a 'must' for any aspiring writer.
  I wasn't sure, but I tried the site anyway September 11, 2003 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
After reading a Writer's Market review that said the site has more info than the book, I decided to try out the site. And even after only a few days of being on it, I've got to say--it rocks!There is a lot more information. There are tons of market listings, which is the main reason I buy the book, but there's also a section filled with answers to reader questions about book publishing answered directly by literary agents. And there's a huge archive of articles on marketing your writing. On top of that good stuff, there are neat features like the Favorites Folder and Submission Tracker--that helps you keep track of your submissions without using 3X5 index cards, or random pieces of paper. And amazingly, it all costs the same as the book! I mean, I don't think there is a better deal out there, and I'm really confused by the earlier posts that seem to dog this site. The book has helped me make several sales over the years, but this site should help streamline my marketing efforts so that I can make even more. Or I might use that extra time to get a little sleep.
  BOOK AND WEBSITE BOTH WORTH THE MONEY September 11, 2003 14 out of 19 found this review helpful
AS ALWAYS THE 2004 WRITER'S MARKET IS CHOCK FULL OF PLENTY OF MARKETS FOR MY WRITING. I WAS DISAPPOINTED TO LEARN, THOUGH, THAT THE GREETING CARD SECTION HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE BOOK AND PLACED ONLINE. THESE MARKETS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A RELIABLE SOURCE OF INCOME FOR ME (AS HAVE MANY OF THE MAGAZINE MARKETS), SO I WENT TO THE BOOK'S WEBSITE AND PURCHASED A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION SO THAT I COULD GET THE MARKETS I WANTED. I DID NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT THE WEBSITE, BUT WHEN I GOT THERE, I FOUND THAT THERE ARE MORE MARKETS THAT ARE NOT EVEN LISTED IN THE BOOK. I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO GET A YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION ONCE MY MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION RUNS OUT.
