Shelley has been reading Writing Success by Susie Kearley

57550167. sy475

A great little non-fiction title that will become a helpful tool for writers interested in submitting freelance articles. There is plenty of information about tailoring your pitch, finding foreign markets, and a detailed chapter on how much to charge.

The author is a well-respected British freelance writer and journalist and has used her vast experience to provide a well-rounded resource.

For me, it was a delight to find two of my favourite authors sharing their personal experiences within the pages. Peter Jones played a pivotal role in launching my own writing career, and it was wonderful to read an open and honest account of his life and writing journey. Terry Tyler also features in a later chapter to share her wisdom on becoming a successful independent author. The case studies and author stories are a lovely addition to the book as it gives the reader a real-life perspective.

Although short, it certainly includes lots of information—a handy book to keep on any writers’ shelf.
