Robert Masello. Owl Books (NY), $14 (244pp) ISBN 978-0-8050-6551-0

In Writer Tells All: Insider Secrets to Getting Your Book Published, Robert Masello, who has already written 13 other books, including A Friend in the Business, delivers exactly what his title promises, and he does it in a spirit of camaraderie and good fun. Although Masello's enthusiasm can make his prose long-winded, he covers everything from the idea of writing a book, to getting an agent and working with an editor, to promotion and sales. Writers who dream of being published will find the insights from Masello's many anecdotes well worth the effort. ( Apr. 10)
