Hi Hope,

As you see, I just renewed via the 30 dollar/five book package. Here is a list of the books I want...plus my TOTAL Funds renewal, of course. By the way, you really do astonish me - you managed to find a British competition I'd seen nowhere else, including a British service I pay for!

All the best, Liz Holliday

Short & Sweet - Markets for Fillers (updated January 2008)

One little market in this book pays $3/word. 160+ markets that accept filler submissions and pay in cash. 

Learn what fillers are, what they pay, where they live, and how to mentally challenge your mind in writing them.  The ideas for them exist all around you.

I read "Markets for Fillers" last night and found it very informative. I'm a new writer, and this is the perfect way to begin. Thanks for a great publication! ~Deborah L. Murphy

I LOVE your ebook "Short and Sweet!"  You present information exactly like I like it---short and to the point.  I'm also very impressed by your quick response to emails and requests.  I nominated your website for the Writer's Digest 101 Best Websites for Writers. You're doing a fantastic job! ~Maribeth Hickman

Markets for the Young Writer (updated February 2008)

You love to write with a passion! You write poetry that no one reads. You design stories that no one sees. You are a young writer, still in school, with no place to send your work other than English class or the school newspaper. Hope Clark raised teen writers. Hope mentors teen writers. Hope believes in teen writers, so she wrote this book. 

232 markets and 118 pages of opportunity for you to get started with that writing hobby - maybe even a writing career! Markets for the Young Writer gives you guidance on what to expect when making submissions in the real world. Here you'll find more than enough help in getting started.

Markets for the Young Writer is an excellent guide for any young writer wanting to get a taste of freelance writing to see if it is a career choice for them. And if a writer has made the choice of being a writer, it gives excellent exposure for showcasing their works for a kick start into a writing career. ~ Cheryl McCann, Electronic Book Reviews

Funds for the Essayist (updated April 2007)

Here is a compilation of markets you probably did not expect. But essayists love their craft! The thought of stating a case, fleshing it out, and proving a point is an addiction to some. Essays are often considered intellectual pieces and at other times considered just simply nonfiction. Either way, they are wanted in a good number of venues from literary journals to contests and magazines. And some like The New Yorker, pay pretty darn well.

Funds for the Essayist contains 260+ listings for your opinion pieces. Never thought you could earn income from your essays? Think again. This ebook opens doors and proves that opportunity exists for the essay writer.

The No Fee Contest Book (updated January 2008)

You are a struggling writer trying to call the little money you make from your passion an "income."  You'd give up your best pen to win a $1,000 writing competition, but the fee is $25. All of them charge fees, so you quit considering writing contests. Well - don't. 

C. Hope Clark comes to you with an alternative - The No Fee Contest Book . In her research through FundsforWriters, she's identified over 310 writing competitions that don't charge even a single dollar - your hard-earned dollar - for your contest submission. The contests, including available online links, comprise an ebook that not only includes these golden opportunities, but also contains Hope's usual opinion and advice on writing competitions. 

I decided to invest in your "No Fee Contest Book" and finally work up the courage to submit my writing to formal contests. The first contest I ever entered was the Euphoria Poetry Contest, which I learned about from your book. This morning I was informed that my poem "From a Daughter to her Father" has won first prize. I wanted to thank you for putting together the "No Fee Contest Book" for people like me, who want to test the waters to see how their work will be received without paying entry fees. Sincerely, Kirsten Traynor

If contest fees have been holding you back, think no more because here is a wonderful treasure trove of no fee contests. Set aside plenty of time to comb through these listings. There is certain to be a match for your writing skill. Much time and research is evident in the listings and well worth your time and money to explore! Cheryl McCann, Electronic Ebook Reviews

Thanks Hope, I love it! A stack of ideas that are just what I need to further develop my seasons & holidays site (http://www.shiningrise.com).  - enough ideas to keep me going for years! I'll do the regular American holidays next, like Independence day  (I'm Australian, so I started with International holidays), & then I'll start on the seasonal ideas & awareness holidays.  Cheers, Leigh
