Check out eHarlequin for a sample of a query letter, synopsis, manuscript page and proofeading marks.

So you've discovered the voices in your head are characters demanding to have their stories told. Good news is you won't need medication to stop the voices.  The bad news is getting their stories on paper isn't as easy as it sounds.   In the following pages you’ll find advice, sample  queries, links to authors pages, links for research and links to resources writers can use to improve their craft and sell their books. Published and unpublished have something to teach. I've learned most of what I know from other writers. Who knew there was such a thing as a good rejection?

In the Writing Groups section is a listing of groups out there to help you get in touch with other writers.  The list is in no way comprehensive.  But it will get you started. Included are romance, suspense, mystery, horror, non-fiction and children's groups.

Browse through the site.  Check out the research links and resources sections.  See the samples section for some really bad and not so bad examples of query letters.  I hope to update this site regularly so if you have any writing related news or advice please email me so I can inlcude it. All articles/advice will be credited to the author.

Happy writing.
