Summary: A well-stocked toolkit!
Review: I've learned so much from Elizabeth Lyon. I keep my copy of the Sell Your Novel Toolkit within arm's reach because I find it indispensable whenever I'm ready to market my manuscript, no matter what part of the process I'm involved with. From Lyon's book, I've learned how to write a query that catches the attention of the recipient, how to write a synopsis, how to format, and what I need to submit. I've also learned what to do if I get a rejection and what to do if my manuscript is accepted. I feel that Lyon has a sincere interest in helping writers achieve their dream.

Summary: The Sell Your Novel Toolkit
Review: Obviously an accomplished writer herself, Ms. Lyon seems to have a sixth sense about the quandaries we novelists ponder each night when we could be sleeping. Should I write a prologue? How do I keep track of crisscrossing submissions? Should I give up after the tenth rejection letter? Tool Kiit offers the steadying voice of an accomplished independent editor who has made it her life's work to delve into every detail of publishing, and she has come up with a workable plan of attack.

Summary: Practical help to launch that first novel
Review: This book is pitched at new novelists, and provides a very readable, practical and comprehensive guide to all aspects of promoting that first novel in today's highly competitive market, including both methods of self-promotion and the use of agents. The sections dealing with the use of synopses will also assist first-time novelists to tighten up the structure of their work before approaching agents and publishers. A valuable marketing took for new novelists and those who have cause to advise them.

Summary: Super Book!
Review: You can put this book to use right away. It's well organized, crisp, and complete. Don't do as I did and wait until your novel is complete before reading it. It will help you from day one of your project.I had just finished my first novel, AnaPaul, and was trying to understand how to begin markeing it. This book was a Godsend.
It was just what I needed to move forward. Lyon's insights into writing, publishing, and marketing are just invaluable. I had really been struggling to get my arms around the publishing landscape. Her book allowed me to very quickly categorize my book, see how it fits into the publishing universe, and put together an eye-catching synopsis. It's a great investment. John
