About the Renegade Writer
The Renegade Writer: A Totally Unconventional Guide to Freelance Writing Success first hit the shelves in fall 2003. We knew we’d hit a home run with the book because we dared tell writers that a lot of rules about freelancing are complete bull doo-doo. That said, we were quite unprepared for the fanfare, the kudos, and
dare we say, the adulation, our blood, sweat, and late night coffee-swilling had wrought. In 2005 we updated the book to include the stories of freelancers whose writing lives were touched by our book, as well as some new content.
In November 2006, Marion Street Press released our 2nd (3rd?) book, The Renegade Writer’s Query Letters That Rock. We talked to dozens of editors from magazines ranging from Smithsonian and Parenting, to Fitness and the L.A. Times magazine, and asked them, “What makes you buy a story?” We not only will share what the editors said, we include the actual query letter that sold, along with the writers’ comments. Seriously, this book is going to change your life — or at least, make you change your underwear.
