Raging Gracefully

Smart Women on Life, Love, And Coming into Your Own

By: Jennifer Basye Sander

In Raging Gracefully, women just like you give voice to the unique challenges and choices that color this glorious yet gut-wrenching time of life. This engaging, endearing collection of true-life stories reveals the guts and glory of women old enough to know who they are--and run with it: a grieving widow of forty-nine experiences the healing powers of friendship, laughter, and water while vacationing and skinny-dipping in Mexico with sister-friends; a committed bachelorette has a change of heart and ties the knot in her sixtieth year; and a once mild-mannered woman raves about her unexpected menopausal rage, whiskers, weight gain, crushing fatigue, and crashing libido, and refuses to go without a fight into that dark crone's night. In mid-life the truth comes out whether we like it or not--about life, about death, about what really matters. We take on everything from children who won't grow up and parents who become children to about-face career changes and relationship rescues (or not). But through it all we can still have some fun, and this is the book that proves it! So treat yourself to a little graceful raging!

The Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Published, 2e

By: Sheree Bykofsky,Jennifer Basye Sande

Getting a novel or other work published remains one of the most mysterious processes in business today. For writers, the mystery of getting published resides in unanswered questions. Do I have to have an agent? What will an agent do for me? How does publishing work? How much do I get paid? How do I protect my work? And most importantly, what happens in those mysterious agent/author lunches? Using the comprehensive and easy-to-read format of the Complete Idiot's Guide series, the Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Published, 2E, gives new and experienced authors alike tips, advice and practical step-by-step instructions for writing book proposals and query letters, pitching ideas to agents and editors and writing outlines and sample chapters. In addition, expert authors Sheree Bykofski (an agent in New York) and Jennifer Sander (a published author) share with readers everything from how to manage deadlines to a typical book editor's work day. With a thorough explanation of the book publishing business, the authors provide writers with the most usable book in the category.
