520    With the advent of submission conveniences offered by the 
       internet, today's authors face unprecedented competition 
       in the writing market. Adding to that, the publishing 
       market is in a constant state of flux, making publishers 
       wary about taking on new authors. Further, a plethora of 
       options for publication make navigating the increasingly 
       complex publishing industry harder than ever. So, how does
       an aspiring author get published?  Learning the ropes, 
       understanding how publishing works, and having someone who
       can help you navigate this convoluted system will make all
       the difference between a manuscript sitting on your closet
       shelf - or sitting on the top of the best-sellers shelf. 
       In 24 eye-opening lectures, Jane Friedman, publishing 
       industry expert and educator, provides you with sought-
       after secrets of the publishing process that will help you
       navigate this difficult progression, bypass pitfalls that 
       many novice authors get hung up on, and improve your 
       chances of being considered for publication. She acts as 
       your personal guide though the entire process: from 
       finalizing your manuscript, to writing the perfect pitch, 
       to reviewing contracts and marketing your book. She 
       provides the candid scoop on what you need to do in order 
       to increase your chances of being considered. The 
       knowledge you'll gain by having an inside expert teaching 
       you how to position your book for publication gives you a 
       unique advantage and drastically increases your chances of
       getting noticed in this increasingly competitive industry.
       The reality is that there is no magic formula that will 
       guarantee publication. There are, however, numerous things
       that you can do to improve your chances and streamline 
       your path to success. Get extensive insights into the 
       publishing process that will help you avoid the most 
       common mistakes and pitfalls that many authors encounter.
