An author at last - maybe!

Hi chulce, thanks for responding. Many people have an ambition to write a novel, and I'm no different. Unfortunately, many don't get the opportunity to start, others give up, but a few see it through to the end, which in favt is a new beginning. The battle to get it out there. There are plenty of publishers that will print your book, but few that will finance that exercise.

There are a lot of publishers that actually look at what may be the greatest new thing to hit the book world. Many publishers can be extremely picky with what they want to see come from their company. For several years, I have been working on a series of children's books that still has not made it past the rejection stack. Although, the rejections have mentioned that they aren't ready for this update in the genre I have chosen. In some aspects this can be a slap in the face. I feel that the publishers, just need to throw it out there and see how it is received as a story concept and idea. Many publishing companies are now angry that writers are turning to self publishing. But, I think they also need to consider their expectations in the matter and how picky many of them have become.

Hi chulce, I wish you luck with your childrens books. What you say in correct, unless you are someone famous, or a politician who will guarantee the publishing company return on their investment. Once again, good luck, nd thanks for your input.

Thanks, joyadalia, I've at least got my foot in the door, but they haven't accepted it yet.

Still, good luck

Thanks for your infomation, kbkbooks, but I'm not IT savvy, so I wouldn't know where to start.

Hi pola, I have to sit and wait now, but at least they liked the sypnosis.

Thanks Syndarin, I have everything crossed, and I'm hoping for a positive result.

Still praying, and have my fingers crossed. The process could take a few months.

Don't worry msfrancisco I have made similar mistakes, and unfortunately they can't be undone once we hit the enter button. This is just another step in the getting read process, but they liked the synopsis, so here's hoping.
