Reviews

Thanks for the ebook. I went through it and next week I am following your system and am sending out query packages for my existing column which runs in my hometown newspaper (which happens to be owned by Gannett). So my strategy is to target first other Gannett papers (familiarity with a sister paper hopefully might open some doors) and also Business Journal publications, since it's a business column. I like the fact that you also included a listing of over 6,000 newspapers in your ebook. Very helpful.

Thanks again for your advice. I'm anxious to try it.

All the best,
- Scott
