Two New Publishers

Two new publishers.  Hi everyone it has been some time since I have posted. I have been wrapped up in the political news and just didn't have any interest at the time to post.

But as promised on my FB page here are two publishers that are accepting manuscripts without an agent. Hopefully one of you will have success with them. Please leave me a comment if you try and them and let me know what your experience was.

Henry Press. A small publishing house that publishes mysteries and women's literature. They publish in e-books and prints. They will respond to your manuscript within 6 weeks.

Forever Yours-  Accepting submissions from authors. without an agent. They will publish new authors without a publishing history. They publish  E-books and POD .
They will respond within 8 weeks.

Have a wonderful day and let me know your experience with either one of these publishers.
Please feel free to comment.

Elect Hillary Clinton on December 19

Elect Hillary Clinton for president on December 19 when the electoral college places their vote.  I  don't make it a practice to discuss  politics but this is so very important.  I strongly feel that those of us that don't want Donald Trump as president - MUST at least do something to let our voices be heard.

PETITION

Hillary has 2 million of the popular vote and it's still rising!  This petition below has 5 million votes on it and counting. Won't you sign it if you feel you're not happy with the election results?
  Let us all try to change the course of this election and remove the bigotry and fear-based views of Trump.
I find it interesting that Trump kept saying at his rallies that the election was rigged.  Did he know something?

Please help and share. If you don't agree with me that's fine...we all have a right to our own opinion and views.

Happy Thanksgiving to all

Literary Journals

I'm Back! Feeling somewhat refreshed but I still need more time off!. As I promised from my last post I wanted to share with you two publishers.
 I came across a literary journal that publishes fiction, poetry, and art. It's called Hungry Chimera.

I also want to add another journal that looks interesting. It's called The Rush. From what I understand it is a fairly new literary journal and they pay!. Looks promising you may want to check it out. They accept multiple submissions and their guidelines are reasonable.

Have a nice Halloween..... If anyone tries these journals please share your experience.

Keep on writing

Tired-On a break

Tired and  on a break!.  I have been going crazy these past few days and I have not touched my computer let alone worked on my book.

I am sure many of you have done the same thing. How frustrating it can be when you KNOW you need to write but can't find the time.

I have read where YOU MUST write every day but life has a way of sidetracking you. So I have decided to just cancel this week and start again.

 My next postI will let you know of another publisher looking for manuscripts without an agent.  My book is already published on Smashwords and has been distributed to other retailers. I am optimistic that I may have more success with Smashwords than Amazon. I shall see.

M.A. Courtney  The Invitation

Barnes& Nobles
Kobo
Apple
Inktera
OverDrive       To name a few.  I will see how successful I am with Smashwords.

Have a wonderful day

Publishing-Small Press

Publishing-  Small Press. As I promised in my last post I am sharing with you
a publisher accepting submissions. 2LeafPress is a small press publisher that accepts submissions from authors without an agent.

Their genres  are fiction, creative fiction, and poetry.  They publish in paperback, hardcover, and electonic.,

They publish novellas, short story collections and novels to name a few. They are new to the contemporary scene and may be worth it to check out their website.

As always. if you give them a try please come back and share your experience with us.

Until my next post.....Keep on writing.

The Invitation on Smashwords

The Invitation is now published on Smashwords
  https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/668344

I am excited because I believe publishing it on Smashwords gives me more exposure than Amazon and it allows me to track my free sample downloads which Amazon doesn't offer.

I also like the many features it offers authors and guides toward marketing.  So please check out my new book and I would love to hear from you.  I will gladly reciprocate the favor.

In my upcoming Blog post, I will provide a link to another publisher looking for book submissions.


Have a great day

Keep writing

Authors- Publishers looking for Manuscripts

Attention all authors! Publishers looking for manuscripts.
We authors are always looking for a publisher that will accept manuscripts without an agent.

Well I wanted to share two with you:

Angry Robot- A sci-fi and fantasy publisher. They are part of Walkins Media LTD and they offer advances so check them out on their website.

Cedar Fort- Is open to all genres and also will consider publishing reprints.  They also offer advances.

As I receive more info on publishers I will share them.  I am excited to publish my third book
The Invitation  on Smashwords.  I have a good feeling about them and I am optimistic that I will do better with them than Amazon.  I don't care for the return policy that Amazon has.

Until next time...Keep on writing and share if you have tried one of these publishers and the experience you had.
