Notes:

If you are planning to incorporate writing a book into your business and are thinking of finding an agent or a publisher, please be wary when looking.

There are many unscrupulous people looking to make a fast buck from authors (and speakers who write).

Anyone thinking of writing a book would benefit by studying the “Writer Beware” page at www.sfwa.org/beware before you begin looking for writers’ services, representation, or publishers.
