Full review
As a writer I need to know where to target the things I write and consequently I need a reference book to guide me to those targets. Enter Writers Handbook 2001 stage left.

A comprehensive tome which not only lists all the relevant contacts a writer will ever need, but is also packed with competent advice and information on topics like Freelance writers rates, screenwriting (by Lynda le Plante), copyright laws and income tax.

Writers Handbook will not get that publishing deal signed for you, but it will tell you which Agents and Publishers are more likely to be interested in your work than others. It is still best to check out for yourself in libraries and newsagents to check if your work is the sort of thing that the people you are targeting like to publish.

The book caters for all writers - novels, poetry, drama, etc. and is packed with names addresses, email addresses, phone numbers and fax. All that is left for you to do is to write the masterpiece and persuade the contact you found in the Handbook that its worth publishing.

It is a must for any serious writer and if you think 12 quid is too steep, go and ask your library to order a copy.
