Gain Access A Complete Guide To Writing For Publication Envisioned By Susan Titus Osborne Accessible In Digital Version

is a Christian book, There's nothing wrong with that, but I was not aware that this is a book written by books Susan Titus Osborne is the editor for Christians, Obviously, I felt misled. Nothing in the title, on the cover, or on the back blurb and description led me to see that is a Christcentered, valued book, Maybe if I knew the writers, I would have been wise to the publisher's ruse, but as it wereand isI have never heard of these people before, I felt like one of the many nonUgandans responding to the Invisible Children campaign, only later to learn that the group is headed by a bunch of Evangelicals, Sigh. It's fine that they're Christians and religious and are trying to indoctrinate people, just make it explicit,

I picked up this book from my university's library in prep for one of my classes, magazine writing and editing, next semester, I wanted to put a group of books on reserve for my students, This won't be joining the list because I teach at a public school, Also, the essays are almost all just common sense,

Had I read the TOC before adding the book to my stacks while I was in the stacks, I would have replaced it to its slot on the shelf.
And I probably read the first few chapter titles, like "Edit Yourself before Someone Else Does It for You" and "Making the Most of Writers' Conferences" which is actually a pretty good chapter, save for the info regarding Christian conferences and for God to lead you in the right way, unless you're into that, then it's fine, I'm sure, which sound innocent enough.
But if I made it down to chapter eight, "Writing Daily Devotionals," or the nine, "A Different Kind of Mission Field: Writing for the

Secular Market," I would have known.


This is not to say that none of the info in the text is usefulagain, I liked the chapter on writers' conferencesbut know that this is a Christian book! Gathered together in this one volume are twentyfour of the industry's experts in the field of writing and publication.
