are now a wide variety of methods in which you can use Inkspot or
Inklings for promotional purposes. I welcome all feedback and
suggestions! I'm a writer and editor, not a marketing expert, and
would appreciate any ideas or tips on potential advertisers I
should approach. For more information, please see

published by The Design Image Group, Inc. Horror, dark fiction.
One-time publication rights. Upon publication, all rights revert

all new material (since the theme of the book is new monsters),

rights to the story." FICTION between 3,000-10,000 wds.
Exceptional longer or shorter pieces will be considered. PAYMENT:

a new commodity with frightening features, a convergence of
terror and the mundane." Email submission preferred (please do
not send stories as attachments; cut and paste into the body of
your email); snailmail (PC or Microsoft Word disks if possible)
submissions are also acceptable. The editors take no

fast line limits, but poems over 60 lines would have to be
exceptional to be considered." Pays $15/poem. Poetry must fall
within the fantasy genre. Max. 5 poems/submission. "Any form of
poetry is fine, traditional or free verse. In fact, if you want
to experiment with the tricky old poetic structures, feel free to
go ahead. Likewise, both narrative and lyric poetry are fine.
Remember though, that to me, structure is less important than
soul. If your poem doesn't make me see, or feel, or believe
something, it won't matter how pretty the words are, or how
perfect the meter and rhyme." Reading for issue starting Oct.1
until issue fills up or until Dec.25/98, "whichever comes first."
Submit stories via email to address at bottom. Put submission in
the body of the text, no attachments. Other tips: "SF and pure

ASK THE BOOK DOCTOR
----------------------------------------------------------------
by Carol Henson <bookdoc@prodigy.net>
How can the Internet help?
--------------------------
Q: Can the Internet help when it's time to start submitting my
manuscript to publishers or agents?
Yes. Researching the publishing world has gotten a lot easier
thanks to the Internet. I can't stress enough how important it is
for every writer to do research before submission. Some writers
try to take the easy way out, using a more of use a shotgun
approach to manuscript submission, rather than spending real time
to get the right information about a potential market beforehand.
Your chances for success are far better if you do your homework.
The Internet has made this a lot easier. One of the best places
to start your market research is at Bookwire
(http://www.bookwire.com). This site is designed to help you keep
in touch with the publishing world and the more you know about
the big world of book publishing, the better. Once you've logged
onto this site, the first place to go is Publisher's Weekly. You
can look at the bestseller lists and see which books have been
sold and which publishers have bought them. By keeping up with
the bestseller lists, a writer can stay current with the latest
market trends. This will help you see the connection between the
type of book you're writing and the type of publisher in the mood
to buy it.
Publisher's Weekly has several sub-sections to check out. In The
News, People, and New Ventures, are excellent for finding out the
names and correct spelling of editors newly hired, promoted, or
moved. You'll also find discussion groups and even a poetry
section. Bookwire also offers a link to Literary Marketplace
(LMP). LMP, the ultimate reference book about the publishing
world, is currently offering a free 30 day trial of their online
material, but even if you don't sign up, it is still a great
place to verify the spelling of an agent's or publishing house
editor's name and current address. This information is crucial to
getting your manuscript into the hands of the right person. The
Association of Author's Representatives is another Bookwire link
that lists agents who have qualified for membership in the
association. These agents have met certain quality working
standards and the site even tells you just what those standards
are.
You'll also find loads of information for mystery writers at the
Mystery Writers of America site and Authorlink gives you the
latest news and marketing information about its community of
editors, literary agents and writers. All of this information is
available via the Internet if you start your market research at
Bookwire. Of course, Inklings, the newsletter you're reading
right now, is great for keeping every writer motivated and up to
date on current writing trends plus it's delivered to your
mailbox every month. In the past, a writer might have
concentrated on finding a literary agent to represent them first,
letting the agent look for an appropriate publishing house. Now
there's the option of approaching publishers directly. But there
is a catch: most publishing house editors won't accept
unsolicited or unagented manuscripts. The good news, however, is
that they will almost always accept a single page letter
addressed directly to them. This gives a writer a chance to
approach a house with a one page query letter. One page only!
That means more work for the writer, honing a catchy query letter
down to one compact page, but in today's publishing climate, it
can be well worth the effort. Once you get an editor's attention,
it is relatively easy to snag an agent to handle contract matters
which is not such a bad idea for those of us not as comfortable
with all the ins and outs of writer's rights. It really is
important for every writer interested in submitting a manuscript
to do lots research ahead of time. Use the Internet to find
current names and addresses and to keep up with the changing
scene in the publishing world. Don't forget the public library,
too. The Internet comes in handy, but nothing replaces a few
hours spent at your local library.

INDUSTRY INSIDER: WRITING FOR THE TRADE JOURNAL MARKET
----------------------------------------------------------------
by Jody Lannen Brady <jlbrady@erols.com>
I'm going to make what will at first seem a fool-hardy
suggestion: Try writing for a market that probably won't offer
you any money.
The market I'm talking about is the trade journal market. Getting
paid to write for this market isn't automatic--but it is
possible. While some of the larger, technical magazines pay good
money for writers capable of covering field developments, many
new trade magazines and small newsletters depend on non-paid
submissions provided by companies in the trade. These articles
are obviously more "infomercial" than objective reporting, but
they're current and they're gratis; it's not difficult to
understand why they fill the pages of journals who have more
advertising staff than editorial staff.
Here's where the opportunity lies: businesses who provide these
articles get to spread word about their companies without paying
hefty advertising fees--but many businesses don't have a writer
on staff. You might write an article for a growing catering
company that wants to let event planners know about new services,
for example. Or a corporate profile of a sucessful CEO looking to
get good publicity for her company by sharing career tips. I
started writing articles for trade journals in the special events
industry when a directory editor wanted to circulate his
company's name. The editor recognized the value of articles with
his company's name and phone number in the byline, and was
willing to pay me decent wages to write articles for submission.
How to Get Started
------------------
You can approach businesses with the suggestion that you write
articles for periodicals in their trade. There are quite a few
options to suggest: editing company-generated articles and
handling the submissions process; ghost-writing articles for an
executive who wants to keep the byline in-house; writing articles
for a set fee (by the hour or by the word); and writing on
speculation (you get paid a higher rate, but only if the article
is accepted).
Obviously, the best bet for a writer is to write with your own
byline and to convince a business to pay you up front--regardless
of submission outcomes. But if you don't have published clips to
show around and you don't have experience in the field you're
writing about, you should consider writing on spec in order to
build your clip file.
The second way that trade journal writing can pay off is by
impressing the publication you've written for--for no pay--and
convincing them that you're worth paying. A magazine that has
paid me to write several feature articles, ran my first three
pieces without pay (it was their "strict policy"). Once they had
published me a few times, I was prepared to burn my bridges: I
told the managing editor that I was only interested in writing
non-subsidized articles in the future and that the magazine would
need to pay me. To my surprise, the editor agreed. To date, I've
written two of the magazine's cover articles for decent pay and
three smaller articles.
If asking for pay after unpaid publication doesn't work out,
you're still ahead of the game. Copy the clips you've collected
from the periodical and use them to sell yourself to a paying
market--either another trade journal or, better yet, a consumer
publication covering the same field. It helps when you can tell
a publication that you "write frequently" about their field, and
you have the clips to prove it.
What to write
-------------
Think about trade journal material as anything that interests
you, anything that you hear something about, and/or anything that
you have experience in--from embroidery to insurance to hotels to
special events to security to health food stores to elementary
education to records management to Midwest farming....Once you
start looking, you'll be hard-pressed to find a field that
doesn't have a newsletter or magazine covering it.
What do you write for these trade periodicals? How-to's, advice
from experienced professionals, trade news, trends in the field,
profiles, new products, and technical developments. Some trade
periodicals are also interested in interviews, humor, opinion
essays and historical/nostalgic/anniversary pieces. If you're
not certain what's expected, your best bet is to study the
articles in a sample copy. Looking at a number of periodicals in
one field will also help you get a feeling for the range of
topics covered.
Market research
----------------
If you don't already have a copy, Writer's Market (Writer Digest
Books) is available in most libraries and it's a great place to
start. Look for journals in the field(s) you're interested in;
check to see if any of the publications offer writers' guidelines
and/or free sample copies. You'll find that many of the
periodicals are produced by large publishing companies who may
be able to send you guidelines for as many as twenty trade
journals in one fell swoop.
When you're at the library, you'll want to look for the Business
Publication Advertising Source (Standard Rate and Data Service),
which is organized by professions and includes addresses and
contacts for thousands of trade periodicals.
The other way to research the market is to ask businesses in the
trade about publications about which they're aware.
The trade articles that I write are interesting to research and
write; while they're not my ideal writing assignments, I'm happy
to be paid to exercise my writing muscles. And I've been able to
make double use of the information I gather writing for trade
journals; twice now, I've turned the same material into articles
for mainstream publications. My next step is to recycle some of
this stuff into my fiction!
Other Resources:
----------------
Getting Started via the Internet: Running a "trade journal"
search on just about any search engine will yield a wealth of
information about potential markets. Some of the best sites
include:
Yahoo--Journals in dozens of industries, from "agriculture" to
"utilities".
http://www.yahoo.com/business_and_economy/magazines/trade_magazines
Handilinks--Search over 60 trade journals.
