This is a huge 900-page book (huge in dimensions too) with detailled (4-10 pages) descriptions of 100s of languages. It used to cost over $800.00. I spent years searching for a copy. Now you can get it for less than $20: https://www.amazon.com/Facts-About-Worlds-Languages-Encyclopedia/dp/0824209702/

In England we have a book called The Writers' and Artists' Yearbook which lists every agent and publisher, what sort of books they take on, their contact details etc. It is also full of advice on how to get published from both industry professionals and authors.

Ah, that's a shame. I only started in my 20s, so the stuff I've written is all great memories. Also, the journal that I use (from the London Science Museum) only has about 3 sentences of space for each day, so it only allows me to capture the most essential moments and feelings.

Check out this list of what the top 10 media companies own and who is on the board of directors for each of them. The Project Censored 1997 book had this list published with octopus-style corporate logos much like what you see in the video.
