Helping writers get published.

If you write, I created this web site for you. During the time I worked as an editor at Simon & Schuster, I came to see that writers are woefully uninformed about the business side of publishing. This lack of knowledge often results in disappointment and missed opportunities. Knowledge is power only when shared and as such I offer you my experience and expertise with the intention of empowering you to create the writing career you desire and deserve. Writers tell me this web site, as well as my workshops and newsletter, have helped them find agents and get published; if it worked for them it can work for you. Best of luck, and let me know what happens.

"You must write for children the same way you write for adults, only better."

--Maxim Gorky

“Thanks for your good editing, suggestions and encouragement. I found a great agent, Claire Gerus, and she directed me immediately to Kaplan Publishing Co. and yesterday a signed contract came through with a nice little advance and a commitment to publish my book on juvenile justice early in 2011. Your suggestions and encouragement were invaluable.” --Juvenile Judge Irene Sullivan, author of “Tough and Tender: Juvenile Justice That Works for America’s Troubled Kids”
