I am an Author, I have one self-published book. It is of encouraging and inspirational poetry. What are the best Christian publishers to get in contact with? How should I go about doing it? Any information you have is very appreciated, Thank you.

Do you have any advice about looking for a good one?

I have a Christian Book blog set up to detail some new Christian books for Whitaker House publishers. How can I get some Christian traffic? I'm looking to get this out for some Christians to see, but I really don't know any good places to start. Here's a link: newtitlesfromwhitakerhouse.blogspot.com

I plan to be a writer for my career, and I am in the process of writing a book that I would like to have published eventually, so I was wondering, does anyone know of any good Christian book publishing companies? The best I know of would be Thomas Nelson and any associated publishers. Does anyone know of any better ones or have any suggestions? Thanks. Note: I don't want any type of self-publisher. I want publishers that are good at marketing books and will make good book covers to attract consumers.

I have written a book, several actually. But the book that I think is my best, is a book about angels. It's a Christian book, but not overtly so, not preachy in any way. I think it would offer a lot of comfort to anyone who has lost a loved one or friend, especially a child. I have sent a lot of email query letters to places that accept electronic mail but don't get anywhere. Does anyone have a publisher or agent sugggestion for this type of work?

I have been working on a book aimed at Christian children. Anyone know any good publishers?

thinking about publishing a book.. though i'm not sure where to go. hoping to avoid 36 publishers

I just wrote a book called the Power of Deliverance and the publisher is charging an arm and a leg to promote it. I want to know how can I take advantage of the internet to sell my book online and also make contacts for offline sales?

Why is it published by a "Christian" publisher and sold largely through "Christian" booksellers? What makes this a "Christian" book? Can you tell me anything else about your opinion of the book?

I want to buy a leather bound copy of the complete stories by Hans Christian Andersen. I have seen heaps of books out there by different publishers and it gets confusing. Ive read the reviews on amazon and a few people are saying the paper is super thin, or the ink smudges, or there are no space between the stories, or badly translated. Can anyone personally recommend one? Or do I go for one that only has part of the stories I also want to get the same for the Brother's Grimm

I just had a book published, "Grandma, why didn't God make me a bird" and today it is available on the publishers website. http://www.tatepublishing.com/bookstore/book.php?w=978-1-61566-022-3. How can I maximize the internet for promotion!

I want to submit a manuscript to a Christian book publisher. They told me they don't take unsolicited work but will work with agents. Any suggestions?

What I DON'T want: - My Utmost for His Highest (Already gone through it) - Surface, introductory Christian devotional - One of the many, bland generic books spit out by Christian publishers with catchy covers and phrases What I DO want: - A devotional with depth - Something that is daily (not a story with chapters)

my friend has written many christian songs and book but dunno how to get a publisher to publish their works. they dun wan self publish one.. who got information about this please help.. thank you very much..

OK, i haven't published my other books yet, and i'm not saying i will but i want to, but i got this idea for a book and i don't know because i want to publish my other books (not Christian) then my book (Christian) about Walking with Jesus. Logically Walking with Jesus! (Aka, God granted the girls wish and she got to go back in time and meet Jesus. it's fiction, OK? so anything can happen, i just used God's name for my amusement) I'm just wondering if i should leave it for my own of send it out for publishers? Here's Chapter One +One+ Almost every Sunday, I fall asleep in the middle. If I haven’t passed out, I fidget in my seat and bite my nails and Daydream. Mum gave me a lecture about church, and I just ignored her. The only thing that took my attention was that she said that I would have to back to stupid Sunday School. I never told her that I got kicked out of stupid kiddie class after I yelled “Boring” out at the teacher as they were reading some stupid illustrated Bible. I can’t possibly go back. I’m four years over the limit. I’m a “Troubled” teenager, or a nowadays puberty member, as they say at school. Today, although, I have drunk five cups of coffee, read the bible twice this week, and I sit in the uncomfortable chair and fidget, trying to hide the glare mum is giving me. I chew on my lip and look at the preacher. Suddenly, I get, not bored, not tired, I don’t fall asleep, I don’t daydream . . . but I get interested. How could he do all that? My back arches forward and my eyes go wide, and I think my face looks so absorbed I might look crazy. I reach for my pen and notepad and take down notes about Yahweh and almost groan when Reverend says farewell. When I look at mum, she is shocked, her mouth wide. She is smiling. Later on, at nine at night, I am studying my bible, understanding. I just can’t figure out the stinking Thee and thy’s but I take it Thee is They, and Thy is the. Hey, they could make a dictionary at the back, but I just guess. Suddenly mum is knocking on my bedroom door, and I welcome her in. ‘I’m proud of you.’ Mum says, a proud tone in her voice. I decide to tell her my decision. ‘I want to get baptised.’ I say, shaking, wondering if I’m ready. ‘May I?’ Mum is laughing. ‘Honey, it’s you’re decision, not mine. I don’t care if you decide to become an Pricilla Presley impersonator!” She is now giggling. ‘But, remember one thing . . .’ ‘Hmm?’ a smile slides over her face. ‘Don’t forget to hold your breath.’ She sniffs and fakes a sneeze and tingles her nose. Then laughs and walks away. * My heart is pumping hard against my chest. I look at mum, who gives me a thumbs up. I step up. There is three more people with the Reverend. This one is a little scared, trying to hold her breathe and not block her nose. The reverend decides to let her fall in with her hand on her nose and she almost falls into the towel. She stumbles up to the oil man. The next one is just as worse, and I am happy, because I’m scared. Not that I’m giving my life up, but I’m afraid I’m going to smash my head into the bath. But when the boy in front of my falls in, fully clothed I have a panic attack. The Reverand prays, and I guard my heart with my arms crossing and The reverend whispers ‘Ready?’ I make a groaning sound which replies as a yes and the Reverend counts up to three. Then I fall into blue water, and rise, drenched and cold and Satisfied. I wrap a Towel around my body, wiping my nose. Now I know what mum meant about holding my breath. I walk up to the man with a bucket of olive oil, floating on holy water. We have our own little way to get baptised. You fall into the long bath behind the stages and walk over to the man with the oil and holy water and get anointed. ‘By the power of the father.’ I say, taping water and oil on my forhead. ‘son.’ My cheek. ‘and the holy spirit.’ my left cheek. I don’t know if it was in the right order but I still feel happy. ‘amen.’ (P.S. Any girl names that have a meaning like "Walking with Jesus" or whatever.)

I am writing a book about my life and need to know the procedure in doing this. The book will be a Christian oriented book. I need the name of some "good" publishers that are NOT scams, etc. that will actually take a look at your work and not shrug it off. What is the first step(s) in getting a book looked at for publishing?
