The American Directory of Writer's Guidelines by Brigitte M. Phillips, Susan D. Klassen and Doris Hall

This book contains a huge collection of complete writer's guidelines from the publishers. These are not market listings that are written up about a particular publication, but the actual guidelines that the publisher provides to writers interested in writing for the publication. Over 1,400 guidelines are provided in the book. The writer's guidelines are listed alphabetically, but the book does provide a topical index which allows the writer to find specialty markets in the topic index and then leaf through the book to find their specific guidelines. This a very valuable book containing thousands of writer's guidelines for top publishers. This can save writers lots of money in postage and a lot of time in paperwork from sending endless SASE requests for copies of the publishers latest writer's guidelines.
