Written by two 15-year-old girls who have already seen their work published in various national magazines, this guide is the only resource for young writers written from the viewpoint of young writers. The guide covers everything from setting up a work space to getting organized to working with editors--it is a practical resource to help young people see their writing published. Less a grammar guide and more a how-to in the business of writing for and getting published in today's media markets, the guide teaches young writers the ins and outs of the publishing business. Appendixes contain a glossary of publishing terms; a directory of publications (both magazines and books) and contests; a list of other reference materials; and a helpful postage chart. (NKA)
