I've been skeptical about the magazine Writer's Digest for quite some time. I read it, and often see conflicting advice for writers, sometimes in subsequent issues, and occasionally even in the same issue. Also fueling my questioning is that the advertisements are generally for POD, vanity, and subsidy publishers, that feed on the income of authors, not on readers. I don't like thinking about how many authors have been suckered by the "publishers" that advertise in Writer's Digest over the years.
Am I wrong for feeling this way? Is there any decent advice in the magazine at all, and I'm just looking at it the wrong way?
Please clarify this for me.
