Hi J.J.,

Thanks for your comment. Nice try. But I think, given the labor involved in the initial research and updating notes in response to the ever-changing publishing scene, most freelance writers would be reluctant to give the results of that work away on the Internet!

It’s also true that one writer’s market analysis file might be of little interest to others. There are literally tens of thousands of markets out there covering every interest under the sun. Each writer’s comparatively small selection from those markets is likely to reflect her personal interests and tastes and may not be of much general use.

In any case, it’s a very lazy suggestion — do your own research! :D
