Getting published in the children's genre is always easier with the annual Children's Writer's & Illustrator's Market. Each year, the guide is 100-percent updated to bring writers and illustrators the most accurate and complete information to finding a home for their work.

Listings include complete mailing addresses, contact names, terms of payment, tips for getting published and types of work handled. Submission guidelines also spell out exactly how that particular publishing market wants you to send your work to them.

Articles also shed light on the industry with tips on how you can get your own work into print. Some of those articles include "10 Tips for Writing a Great Query Letter," "The Newest Children's Book Imprints" and "The New Rules for Teen Lit."

The markets cover book publishers, Canadian and international book publishers, magazines, greeting cards, puzzles and games, play publishers and producers and young writer's and illustrator's markets. Resource listings like conferences and workshops, clubs and organizations and agents and art representatives give you additional opportunities to make contacts as well as an impression in the children's genre.

Bookworm's Briefing
The 2007 Children's Writer's & Illustrator's Market contains more than 750 listings for getting published. By narrowing down your focus to find listings specifically geared toward the children's genre, your chances of getting published go up dramatically.
