Resources for Writers

This resource section is the reference library for writers preparing their work for editors, agents, and the Web.

• Manuscript Formatting — how to lay out your pages, title page, headers, and chapter breaks.
• Software for Writers — WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, plain text, and how to keep your files compatible.
• Writing Resources — agents, publisher directories, critique groups, and practical tools.
• Publishing Paths — traditional, vanity, hybrid, and electronic publishing explained.
• Email Submissions — how to send your work by email, how to format a query, and what editors expect.

If you are new to electronic publishing, begin with the manuscript formatting guide and the software guide. If you want to understand the business side, read the publishing paths page and then the email submissions page. Our forum is available for practical questions and writer discussion.

Visit the forum to compare notes with other authors and ask about current submission practice.
