Book Description
What does it take to go from unknown hopeful to published author? &break;&break;Writing is a lonely occupation where rejection is the norm, and learning about the early hardships of today's best-selling authors can provide vital reassurance (and comic relief) to aspiring authors. These compelling stories of perseverance and publication will nurture your dreams until you succeed. Inside you'll find: &break;&break; How more than eighty authors launched a successful career–in their own words. Many of these stories appear in this book for the very first time, while others are famous and have been passed down as literary legend.&break; Ten "absolute" rules to follow for publishing success, gleaned from an analysis of more than fifty "how to get published" books. &break; Inspiration and instruction that will help you realize your publishing dreams. &break;&break;How I Got Published focuses on the scary and exciting time when writers are poised to jump before they discover if they can fly–the days when a writer has nothing but a manuscript or an idea or a story, and a desire to get it published. &break;&break;Everybody loves a success story, and this book will leave you feeling energized and upbeat about finding your way.
