How do you publish a poem or book?


I have been told that I have an “amazing talent” in writing. I have wrote a poem which I feel confident of. Where do I go to publish it? Do i need more then one poem? Also what are the chances of actually getting a poem or novel published?

What is the best means of finding a publisher to publish a book in the juvenile fiction genre?


I am in the process of writing a juvenile fiction book. I would like to find a publisher, but really do not know where to start. There are so many websites and places on the internet, it is hard to know what are legitimate and what are not. I would like to find a publisher that I can be in regular contact with and not just communicating through impersonal emails.

why does everyone always brag they are writing a novel or a book?


I mean really it makes me crazy when people start a story and they are on page 3 and they talk nonstop about this great book they are writing.

i’ve written things where the shortest chapter was like 20 pages size 10 font. I never call my stuff books or novels.

its not a book or a novel till its published!

lol. I dont know why it bother me. Anyone can write a 12 page story and call it a book. it takes a real writer to actually publish that book.

How do I publish my book?


I have some chapters left, after that, I have to organize my book.
I’d publish it, just like most authors. If I were an old person, that might work. I’m not even 14 yet. How do I enter my book, which will not be shortened or editted in any way, into a writing contest for people my age? (11-14.) I have been told by my sixth grade English teacher I’m a good writer, and told my friend the same. I want to publish my work equally, but no one lets me. (Nope. No NaNoWriMo. I wrote more than half of it already.)
If it were a movie, the rating would be G, just the very very slightest of PG. (A majority of it involves dedicated Christians at a church camp. So it can’t be too bad.)
By the end it should be about 200 pages long.
I’ll add this in advance:

Yes, I’m young. I’ll only be young once. Why not use that immaturity in the later years?
What? I might have to work to be a young adult author? Gangit, I thought I was gonna meet Paris Hilton.

My parents are against me writing a book for the world to see.
So nothing involving credit cards.

Can you publish a book of poetry if you have previously posted them online?


Even if you have deleted all trace of them from the internet?

A friend of mine wanted his poetry published and was told he couldn’t do so because of this.
What about self-publishing? And what if the publisher is fine with it? The question was whether or not it was illegal.

How to publish my poetry in a book?


I would like to begin gathering some of my poetry together. Eventually I’d like for it to be published, but I’m not sure how to go about doing that. Is there a special way I need to have everything in order? Should I just combine it together in the same format as a regular book would be? Is there additional information I need to include. I’m kinda confused, but ready to do this. Where should I go to get it proof read/edited?

What is the best way to begin to self-publish a poetry book?


I have a collection of over 20 pages worth of poetry and I want to self-publish it, but I have no idea how to get started. I want specific things done with the book, such as 100% recycled paper for the book and certain images on certain pages. Well, I hope you can help me : )

Thanks a lot !
