Writer’s Market: Sign up Online
If you are a freelance writer, you have more than likely heard of Writer’s Market. Not only can you purchase the annual Writer’s Market book, but they also have a website that offers just as much information.
For serious freelance writers, an online subscription to Writer’s Market is a must have. For $29.99 you receive many benefits that will help to better your career. Just a few of them include:
1. Listings that are regularly updated. This helps to ensure that you are always getting in touch with the right editor, etc.
2. The online version of Writer’s Market offers a feature known as “Submission Tracker.†This allows you to easily keep track of queries and contacts.
3. A searchable database allows you to quickly and efficiently find what and who you are looking for. Although the Writer’s Market book is useful, you will spend a lot of time flipping through page after page. With an online subscription this is never the case.
Of course, these are only the most basic benefits of Writer’s Market online.
Although I do not use Writer’s Market everyday, it is safe to say that I sign into my account at least three or four times a week. Anytime I am interested in hunting down a new market, or locating an editorial contact, this is where I start.
