Beating the Odds

Writing for publication isn’t easy, but getting published is an essential part of your professional development. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced literacy writer, a K–12 teacher, or a university-level educator, you will benefit from the insights in this book.

Editors Shelley B. Wepner and Linda B. Gambrell have organised the book into four sections that offer guidelines for :

• getting started
• writing for journals, newspapers, and magazines
• writing and editing books; and
• responding to revise-and-resubmit and rejection decisions.

Chapters also include highlights and closing thoughts to recap major themes, and author reflections from a wide range of respected, published authors to cheer you on as you struggle and succeed with your writing.
