Here are some questions that I have:
The first, when becoming published, do you need an agent?
And to get agents, do you need the writers and artists yearbook?
What is the publisher looking for in a manuscript? A sharp, edited clear drawn story?
And how does a writer get up with big publishers and small publishers? Which is the better choice?
How do I avoid '' fake agents'' and '' bad publishers''?
What makes a good opening letter to an agent?
What makes a good synopiss to an agent?
What should I add in it that the agent be impressed by?
How can I make it short and lean? How do I know to address letters to a publisher when I do not know their name and infact, how can I sound professional in front of them?
This is kinda my attitude when I will later on start the process.
And the other part is I expect to get rejections the first time and keep on sending until I get accepted. That's my goal, to get rejected thousands of time and then become published because sooner or later I will get picked up. But that won't stop me from editing and sharpening my manuscript. I want to get published, and I want to write such a book that the publisher should say '' yes now that's a book I can sell. ''. The first thing is that my manuscript should be the number one priority. Get that fixed and then I can send them to agents. If I like my manuscript, chances are it could be picked up. But I want to make sure that the book is everything.
