Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you could sit at the feet of the Pulp Masters to learn - would you? This is a compilation of notes I had left over from research into how those prolific authors of old made a good living from writing - well before the Internet and word-processors. I got into studying the pulp-magazine era authors with Lester Dent while I was studying the conventional wisdom of ""plotting�. Then I found more and more authors who had thrived during those early years and became Brand Name authors that we all grew up with - or at least can discover now. This last find, of H. Bedford-Jone's �This Fiction Business� is so conclusive that very little else is needed. There, he tells the variety of issues that authors of his day encountered. This book is a companion piece to that book and so doesn't need to repeat any of his jocular description of how he made a very good living writing and selling stories during that age.
