From the rear cover

Many beginning writers ask for criticism and advice, and those who don't ask would still like to get it. The volume of submissions makes it quite impossible for most editors to comment individually on submissions, except for those few that they almost want to publish. The editors who have joined together in putting this book together hopes that this will be the next best thing. Obviously it can't offer criticism of your manuscript, but it does offer a wealth of useful tips and insights from several well-known professionals in the field.
