I am wondering if there are any published authors out there who want to help an aspiring writer get into print...
I know that I need to do research on things like target audience, what sells and who sells it and probably many other things that I don't know about. I was told maybe I should rewrite my manuscript but I truly think I can save my manuscript with the right help and with the right "homework" done for it.
I don't want a pity party or anything like that, I just would like some help to point me in the right directions... Tell me what to look for and what to do until I learn the things I need to know...
I live truly in the middle of nowhere and my resources are limited. There are no big chain bookstores and the local library has zero resources to offer. I may need to rewrite the first few chapters of my manuscript but I am deadlocked on what to change to make it better.
Anyway, if there is a published author out there that would not mind having a sidekick and devoted student hanging around please contact me. I am not wishy-washy and I do believe in myself. I won't kiss your feet:grin but I will do my best to learn as quickly as possible. I don't mind starting at the bottom, but I need someone to show me where up is and the rules for getting there.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post...
