--- READER REVIEW EXCERPTS FROM AMAZON.COM --------------------------

Nearly 40 writers reviewed the first edition of our book on Amazon.com, rating us an overall 4.5 out of a possible 5 stars. For the record, none of them were our friends (until after we saw their reviews).

* "ONLINE MARKETS FOR WRITERS should be a standard buy for writers and placed beside their dictionary, Elements of Style, and Writer's Market...I will recommend this book to my students and peers." - Deborah Bouziden, Oklahoma City

* "You're VERY GENEROUS! and I GREATLY appreciate the many pages of book update you sent me. This is an absolute FIRST in my experience. NO ONE has ever delivered so royally on promises made by/in a book. Thank you." - Jane Ware Davenport, Lake Zurich, IL.

* "I landed two jobs and developed a niche expertise after following the details in the book." - Diana S. Adams, Toronto, Canada

* "This book is a must for anyone who wants to be an online writer. Without a doubt, it is the most comprehensive and authoritative source for online market info. Best of all, it's fun to read - and if you can make HTML coding instructions funny, man you have some career ahead of you. Can't wait for more material from the Tedesco brothers." - A writer from Boston [who has since let us know that she is now a writer in New York City]

* "This book is the bible on how to write on the web!" - Richard H. Frishman, New York City

* "This is the best book about online writing that I've come across, and a stand out among the crowded field of books on writing in general. - Albert DiBartolomeo, editor-in-chief of the "Drexel Online Journal"

* "...the best thing about it is the interviews. They went right to the source: online editors and successful working writers and asked, 'How do you do it? How did you break in? What's hot? What are editors looking for?'...It's a collection of sound, solid advice from industry insiders." - David Pascal, New York City

* "If only I had purchased this book before I sent out my first query letter! I managed to stumble through the negotiations of my very first contract/assignment, but it would have been much less nerve-wracking if I had read ONLINE MARKETS FOR WRITERS first. The format is excellent: informative and easy to use. It includes a brief history of the Internet with...an online market database packed with essential information. The writing styles of both the Tedesco brothers, while distinct, are conversational, easy-going and not without humor. It's like getting advice from more experienced friends who are trying to save you some trouble." - Maura Alia Badji, Buffalo, NY

* "The Tedescos pull no punches when presenting site writing guidelines and freelancers' experiences with those sites. Good tips on what kinds of material sites are looking for. Since many sites don't clearly publicize writing opportunities or guidelines, this guide is essential to getting started or to expanding your horizons." - Mark Smallwood, California
