SATAN TOLD ME TO

Roger MacBride Allen (who wishes to remain anonymous) has put together a valuable guide to manuscript submission for your perusal. Included are such marvelous tips as where to find enameled steel to use in place of paper, how to find out-of-work aerospace engineers to rig a laser marking system (after all, normal laser printers won't write on steel), and the sure way to get an editor's attention using a cover letter. Hint: saying that Satan told you to write your book is a sure-fire win. Take a trip through the most extreme examples of things a writer should never do that you've ever seen. Believe it or not, Mr. Allen makes a lot of good points along the way.
