"The Writer's Friend is chock full of practical advice for freelance writers. Most of all, this book can save writers valuable time in growing from an aspiring writer to one who is busy being published--and paid. Too often beginning writers fail to consider the perspective of their first and most critical readers: editors. The Writer's Friend is most helpful in giving the rookie writer a sense of what makes editors happy."
Richard Gilbert, Publicity Manager, Ohio University Press
"Linda Davis Kyle's book overflows with power-packed ideas for writers. Her encouraging words provide inspiration to publish effective and saleable work. Writers and teachers alike can use her wise hints to form good relationships with their editors. Logical questions follow and illuminate topics discussed in each chapter. More than a textbook or how-to manual, The Writer's Friend lights the way to increased sales. Writers will be stimulated, teachers will gain insight and practical knowledge, and editors will see themselves as human. The Writer's Friend is a must for your bookshelf."
Judy Gigstad, Freelance writer and reviewer, Oklahoma City, OK
"The Writer's Friend is an apt title indeed. This book will no doubt become a trusted companion, reference, and source whether you're an aspiring writer just starting out or a seasoned professional who could use a few new ideas. Each chapter overflows with excellent tips, and each contains a list of helpful questions that are also collected in an appendix, adding to the book's value as a reference work. Included as well are a comprehensive index and a detailed listing of the sources, both print and electronic. This book has something for every writer."
Robin M. Mayhall, APR, Editor, Austin Writer
"The Writer's Friend is a treasure trove of practical advice. It provides some excellent thoughts about how you can become a team player, even the team captain, in getting published. And to get published, you'll need a good team."
