Donna Clark Goodrich, author of </span></em><span style="color: #ff0000;">A Step in the Write Direction</span><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">, reminded me that her book is a one-stop resource on both subjects. So, I&#8217;m recommending her book, and repeating my review.</span><br />
</em></p>
<p>Do you wish you could find one resource that would walk you through the process of getting your writing published? Well, <a href="http://thewritersfriend.net" target="_blank">Donna Clark Goodrich </a>has done every beginning writer a favor by filling that need. The subtitle of the book is &#8220;The Complete How-to Book for Christian Writers.&#8221;</p>
<p>Oh, there are other &#8220;how-to-get-published&#8221; books for the Christian market out there. It&#8217;s just that most of them are out of date. Donna includes an FAQ section in the introductory section of the book. For each question, she lists the page number where the answer is found. There are a number of appendices that include how-to information on everything from Word shortcuts to how to form a writers&#8217; group.</p>
<p>The book truly includes everything you need to know to get started as a freelance Christian writer today. There&#8217;s even a chapter entitled &#8220;Social Networking and Online Promotion.&#8221; It&#8217;s an oversize soft-cover book that feels much like a textbook, but it&#8217;s reasonably priced at $21.95 plus shipping.</p>
<p>Experienced, published writers will find useful tips, too. Donna points out that the book helps advanced writers in such things as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Other ways to make money as a writer,</li>
<li>Income taxes,</li>
<li>Collaborating,</li>
<li>Devotional booklet guidelines,</li>
<li>Microsoft Word shortcuts,</li>
<li>Alternative fields of writing, and</li>
<li>Editing hints.</li>
</ul>
<p>There&#8217;s a new student edition especially for young writers, too. Just visit Donna&#8217;s site and scroll down for details.</p>
