I wonder why she was so insistent. A lot of stories involving EDs and mental illness use pseudonyms. <br /><br />If you're looking to publish a book, these are the thoughts off the top of my head. Granted I haven't written for a few years now and never got anything published, but I do have a handful of rejection letters I'm quite proud of ;)<br />- Number one would be to look for a literary agent. They might be the best path to publication and will make things a lot easier. <br />- What biographies that already exist have similar themes/feel to your story? Look at the back cover to see who published them, and check out their website for submission guidelines. <br />- Get a copy of/subscription to the Writer's Market (there's a UK & Ireland edition of the book and an international website). It'll help you find relevant publishers. <br />- Ask your brother!<br /><br />Being non-fiction, you could probably submit a synopsis of sorts with a sample chapter or two, but maybe focus on writing for now. Submitting something near-complete will give you a much better chance. <br />If all else fails, you could always self-publish using Lulu or CreateSpace or something similar, although I'd be very surprised if you don't find someone to sell your story!<br /><br />I would read it from cover to cover to cover to cover to cover to...<br /><br />xxBellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07544398450025713725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6562281218287648674.post-75492911865923809472014-09-26T12:49:09.194-07:002014-09-26T12:49:09.194-07:00Thank you A
