The Making of A Bestseller
Success Stories from Authors and the Editors, Agents, and Booksellers Behind Them
by Brian Hill & Dee Power
Brian
Hill and Dee Power have put together a very comprehensive manual for
the person who wants to be a writer. There are interviews with various
authors, publishers and agents that are eye-opening and succinct.
Both of these people are authors themselves and started on the quest
of writing this book to make the whole process a much easier ordeal.
Very informative
and well put together for an easy read, so that the layperson and
novice writer can understand it and find the help that they need
quickly. Since I have a few books inside of me yet to be written
and because I am a novice writer, I know that I will be referring
back to this book many times before my next books get to the agent,
let alone to the publisher. It should be on every writer's bookshelf
for reference material.
The Making
of A Bestseller is what every person needs to get himself or
herself through the abysmal lack of information out there so that
they can see the other side and become that best-selling author
that they want to be.
I know that
Dee Power and Brian Hill worked very hard getting the interviews
and information they have put into this book and highly recommend
that every writer should pick up a copy of this valuable little
tool. If your future is in writing that great American Novel or
even your own autobiography, you simply must pick up a copy of The
Making of A Bestseller and read every chapter along the road
to success.
