Publishing in Forums

Forums can be seen as extensive tool for research. On Forums, you can find everything and anything but it’s always useful to publish on forums related to what you are writing. For example, If you want to share your views on Soccer, it’s better to get registered on a Soccer forum, start your own topic or comment on others.

Analyse your book to ensure it will get published

June 09, 2010 :: Posted by - Vicky :: Category - General

In my previous post I mentioned some questions to ask yourself when you are reading through your manuscript to ensure that it is the best you can possibly get it so that you are more likely to get your book published.

Here are some more points to ensure you have covered when reading through your manuscript:

  • Has your main character (also known as your protagonist) been changed throughout the course of the story? If your protagonist has not changed or grown by the end of your novel, your book will seem static and unconvincing.
  • Even if your book is a fantasy, it still needs to make some sort of sense otherwise you will confuse the reader.
  • Every action should have a consequence, with each event following on logically from what has happened before. Readers are not likely to believe a story which relies on coincidence.

More advice on how to write a book and get it published

June 08, 2010 :: Posted by - Vicky :: Category - General

Most editors and agents of publishing houses will not take you seriously if you do not have a complete manuscript. Publishing houses need to see proof of what you can write, they will not add you as an author on to their books if you only have an outline and sample of the work you intend to supply.

Once you feel you have written your manuscript to the best of you ability, it is advised that you put the document away for a couple of weeks and then come back to read it with a fresh pair of eyes. When reading the document again from start to finish – you should ensure you have done the following:

  • Ensure that any minor characters or subplots in the book do not take the lime light from the main theme and the major characters.
  • Portray your characters through their actions in order to develop them fully. It is important to not let them get out of character otherwise this will seem unconvincing.

How to write a book and get it published

June 07, 2010 :: Posted by - Vicky :: Category - General

One of my dreams, which I will realise before I am get old and die, is to write a book and get it published. I have carried out some research online to see if I can find some tips for myself and I have noted them here in case you find them helpful in your quest to become an author.

From my research I can tell that it takes two or three years to have your novel published from the date that you send it to the publisher to the time it could be published. Therefore it is important not to try and take advantage of what is happening here and now – because that could make your novel obsolete before the public have even had chance to read it. The best advice I can give to write the novel that you have in your head – don’t try to make it current, just make it a good and gripping read. The last thing you want to do is bore the person who will be reading your book!

Playboy Mansion Will Be Outsourced

November 26, 2009 :: Posted by - Vicky :: Category - General

Playboy and Hue Heffner will now be looking at selling up and retiring at the young age of 83 year old. The empire that is playboy was introduced in 1956 and has grown from strength to strength of the years and now is a huge brand that the new company of AMI will be liking there lips at as it is a huge profitable organisation.

I recon that Hue Heffner will come away from this with a big big colourful cheque that will see him earn a lot of money.

I wonder who will get that when he dies. I wonder if I could try and get a stake in it????

Borders Not Straight

November 26, 2009 :: Posted by - Vicky :: Category - General

Borders the book, music, magazine and anything else you can think of store have been struggling with there status as a company in the black. Not long ago Borders announced that it would be looking to appoint administrators to try and salvage this sinking ship but the acting accountants have had to pull out due to conflicting interests.

These conflicting interests are believed to be the fact that Borders don’t seem to be telling to truth and they seem to be keeping things tight to there chest for some reason. I really believe that something major is going on.
