Now that you know all my
Writing Secrets, you will need to know
my publishing hints. This story, and its related articles about
submitting, acquiring, editing, and marketing, were published in Writer's Digest
as Inside Simon & Schuster: A Publishing
Story, inspired by my eleven years there as a senior editor.
For the same reason that Writer's Digest published and reprinted the writing series and the publishing
story--to help writers worldwide--I am publishing all nine of the articles on the
McCarthy Creative Services website for your free reading and downloading. If you enjoy the story and the series and find them helpful, please let me know. I'd really like to hear from you. Other Sources: Writer's
Digest provides an excellent selection of hints on all types of
writing and getting published at their writersdigest.com
site. You'll especially want to check out their annual 101
Best Web Sites for Writers It lists sites in categories
such as search engines, general reference, the writing life, genre,
and many more.
This story and its related articles were published in their original form in
Writer's Digest in 1998 and later reprinted in the 1998
Writer's Yearbook Extra. I revised and significantly expanded
the story Inside Simon & Schuster: A Publishing Story
for online publication.
After reading the story, see the background articles on: You can download the entire series (87K/14 pages)
in a printer-friendly format either as a
MS
Word document or as a
plain
text.
