Today I am briefly going to discuss
publishing. I have been in search of a
publisher and an
agent this past month. Sadly from my research I have discovered that the majority of
big house publishers and agents will not bother with
authors who write
short stories!
It's not worth their time and of course,
money is involved. So I have decided that perhaps I will go another route- the
small independent publishers.
There are many
small publishers which have windows of time for
submissions and so far they are closed
. A word of caution- there are some you need to be careful with. I have been contacted by two indie publishers but they offered me nothing! I would have had to do everything!. I may as well continue with
self-publishing .
I have a list of small indie publishers and I am going to contact them. My third
book is completed and I would really like to go with a publisher that can offer me a little help.
So to all writers .....I will keep you updated. If anyone has experience with small publishers please share.
Keep on writing!
