Summary
Oscar Collier, Frances Spatz Leighton: How to Write Your First Novel
In thirty-seven years in publishing, one of my greatest pleasures has been helping novelists get their work published—and sharing that pleasure with other like-minded publishers. The thought of helping these new writers enrich the living American literature was a powerful motivation.
Since writing the first edition of this book in 1985, Frances Spatz Leighton and I have received many letters from readers that have reinforced our sense that budding writers need and appreciate a book to accompany them as they pursue the lonely but creative business of novel writing.

It's amazing how the facts about book publishing remain the same despite changes in staff and ownership in publishing houses. It doesn't matter how many, even the big ones, merge into huge houses because, as always, new small publishers are born and some of them grow. Regardless of whether the ultimate owners of publishers are American, British, Australian, Canadian, German, or Japanese, regardless of whether they are media conglomerates or Wall Street stockbrokers or even liquor manufacturers, they must still employ the same types of editors who will choose to buy the same types of popular books from authors who know how to tell good stories.
