All Answers To QuestionsAnswer 1
Have you considered self-publishing? It's a pretty easy process, and it can be useful when you want to shop around your work to other publishers.
Try taking a look at lulu -- http://www.lulu.com
And congratulations! Answer 2
lulu.com is correct. Make sure that the comp. is correct and the first pg. an easy gripping read. Publishers tend to call this a ten min. nod. as in film also if a school for film cannot get anything good in 20 min. scrap it. If a publisher wants $$ from you; no good there my friend. That would be a scam. Publishers will not pay much @ first then if you show your prolific and there is even a fairly small% of fans thats when they'll offer a contract,this is hard b/c they'll expect on a contract five more books lets say, could you do that? So get ready to be open too any ideas for a
book, and you cannot let girls, children interfere with your thought time. good luck. There are plenty of writers and 20X the reader.(not an actual % just for you to be savvy. talk to and listen to ppl. and they're stories, and how you could use theyre stories w/different names of course. Answer 3
For conventional submissions to literary agents or publishing houses consult the current edition of Writer's Market. Within are countless agencies and publishers, but a section of the book is categorized for religious manuscript submissions.
Follow the guidelines exactly of those agents or publishers and submit with a superb query letter. Answer 4
Please consider self-publishing as your last resort. It is sooo expensive and you rarely have the funds to see it through (producing, design, marketing, distribution). All you have to do is go to the Publisher's assosiation's website. Find a christian publisher and send your manuscript to be reviewed. You might just contact them first to find out if there are any costs involved for considering your manuscript. << GO BACK to questions
