Straczynski is the perfect authority to write on these subjects, having garnered success in all those fields and the book is a how-to manual, with plenty of examples throughout. He has revised his 1981 text and brought it into the '90s, with updates on fluctuating markets, speculation about opportunities in CD-ROMs and anecdotes about Writers' Guild strikes that have occurred in the interval.
It also traces out the business side of selling what you write. Straczynski writes in a personable style, but pulls no punches. He helps a potential writer separate his dreams from reality without crushing his ambition. This book is must-read material at several colleges, and it's easy to see why.
It's a handy reference tool that will never let you down. And it's written by one of the best in the business. Who could ask for more?
