This literary agent’s guide for wannabe’ writers is meant to help mostly novice authors persuade people just like her. The book’s success is due largely to the plentiful examples of successful letters written by her and other authors. Templates abound, a happy state for any craftsman, not least beginning or intermediate writers.

Its second contribution is to humanize the mythic person of `the editor’. He or she is a busy professional–like many others, one might add–who needs to find good work. Few are large-fanged, drooly, no-monsters. But you do need to put your best foot forward. Collier Cool’s little paperback will help you do that.

This book will find a place at your elbow as well-thumbed reference more than as a stirring read.
