Written by a prominent author of technical publications, this reference shows technical professionals how to take an idea and turn it into a published article or book. The comprehensive guide covers the entire spectrum-developing an outline, finding a publisher, pitching the idea, negotiating a contract, developing several drafts, submitting a manuscript, working with the different editors, and promoting the work once it’s in book or magazine form-taking authors from pre- to post-publication. With examples of the author’s own published writing projects, this manual goes beyond the craft of writing and demonstrates how to get professional, technical knowledge into print.
