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

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?

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?

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!

Strobel's books are big money makers, in part because churches and Bible studies use them as "textbooks" so as to encourage quantity purchases. Their "logic" and "feigned objective reporting of a professional journalist" embarrasses me as a Bible-believing Christian, especially in light of the fact that I've read a number of books far more obscure (and less lucrative) but doing a much better job with the topics. SO IS THIS SIMPLY ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF CHRISTIAN COMMERCE FOCUSING ON PROFITS OVER QUALITY -- AND HARMING THE KINGDOM IN THE PROCESS? After all, does anyone know of ANY thinking atheist or agnostic who has EVER come to a belief in Christ through reading a Strobel book? [I don't know Strobel and I have no doubt that he is probably a very nice guy. But I have winced whenever I come upon reviews of his books -- almost as much as I've winced while reading the books themselves.] ============================ Brother Jonathan: That's a great lawyer joke!

I am just starting out and I do not have a lot of money to pay for all these packages and high end publishers. Any ideas of where to go through and what to do?

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?

I'm presently trying to publish a non-profitable Christian book entitled Jehovah, The Body of Christ. I intent to use this book to promote a ministry "Leap of Faith Ministries" a non-denominational ministry. I wish to give this book to others for any donation or as a free gift. Those that would wish to aid in having this book published to the public is welcome to contact me. I will send you some of it's contents so as to enable you to see the sort of book I'm having published and am sure that as you read the contents of this book you'll find it a must read book and one that's going to be highly respected and trusted for truth and the wisdom from above. Anyone willing to help me will be greatly blessed from above and will be contributing to a good cause. I'm presently financially unable to self publish this wonderful and Godly inspired book but as I realize I could sale this book to a publisher I also acknowledge this book would be used as a means to make a profit and that many of God Jehovah's children would not be able to have a copy of this book due to the cost and to it's limitation of being known to those that aren't into book publishing and the purchasing of books. Therefore my aim is to have this book published non-profitable and distributed through-out the world. Hospitals, nursing homes, jails and where ever it can be read by those who will take the time to read it. May those of you who realize we're living in the last days of God's final judgment be lead to help me as I strive to feed the flock of Christ and enlighten our brethren to the truth of our Lord Jesus Christ who will have all men to be saved and to come unto the true knowledge of truth.1 Tim.2:4 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." John 4:23-24 "Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth." John 17:17-19 As I bid you fare-well in Christ our Lord, I hope that the mighty and Holy Spirit of Christ will move you to see the importance of this request and acknowledge me as His messenger. for as Paul tells us in the book of Romans"I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto Salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first and also to the Greek." For therein is the righteousness of mighty Jehovah revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, the just shall live by faith. Rom.1:16,17 For faith cometh by hearing and hearing through the Word. Rom. 10:17

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?

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.)
