The Writers Directory PDF Download

When your patrons need biographical and contact data on writers from as close as next door to as far away as South Africa or New Zealand, simply direct them to the completely revised and expanded 13th edition of The Writers Directory. This one-stop guide features information on more than 17,000 living authors from all countries around the world, including 2,500 new to this edition. Each comprehensive entry provides details on established writers of fiction and nonfiction who have published at least one full-length book in English. In addition, the Directory includes many writers just starting their careers. Biographies include the writer's name, as well as any pseudonyms the writer has written under; address; citizenship; year of birth; genres the writer specializes in; career information; and a bibliography. Boldface rubrics allow for quick scanning, helping readers find specific information at a glance. Cross-references to all pseudonyms are listed separately, so the writer's full entry can be easily found.
