Reviews

Author and publisher, Scott Pack: “I receive a lot of emails from authors asking for guidance on how to take the next steps to publication. In future I will just point them in the direction of this book.”

Popular blogger, Bookwitch: “She writes the way I want to. She writes great children’s novels, but it’s Nicola’s non-fiction – and her shoes – that I’m willing to kill for. [...] There is not a thing missing.”

Karen Ball, author, after a Foyle’s event: “Nicola's presentation was faultless. The staff at Foyles were clearly in love with their visiting author [...] I've never seen a flurry of publication pleasure so nicely ordered! It’s a must-have book for aspiring writers [and] authors who already know their trade.”

MA Creative Writing course leader, David Belbin: “Accessible, intelligent and up to date. [...] Should be on the reading list of every creative writing course in the country.”

Editor of The New Writer, Merric Davidson: “At last! The book of the blog - and very probably the book of the century (so far) for all aspiring writer [...] the one book you should have by your side as you’re plotting and planning your career as a published writer. It is, without doubt, one of the most generous how to books you will come across and it’s written in a most approachable, informative style by the self-styled Crabbit Old Bat. [...] Invaluable advice, delivered with honesty and no little humour.”

Best-selling author, Joanne Harris: “…the tutor I wish I’d had. Nicola Morgan is made of crabbit – but she is also made of awesome.”

“Write to be Published aims to show you why publishers and agents say No. Before I was published, I’d had vast experience of this small but infuriating word: I don’t want you to take as long as I did and WTBP is my solution. My aim is to unlock the mysteries, to share with you what I wish I’d known so much earlier. And to say I’m thrilled with the reception this book has had is an understatement!” Nicola Morgan
