It has been said that writing a book is easy; the real work begins when you try to get it published. It may be an exaggeration, but the writing world abounds with heroic failures – manuscripts which should have been bestsellers, but never went beyond that dusty file at the bottom of a wardrobe simply because the writer gave up on publishers and publishing. The information that follows does not promise to eliminate the common frustration inherent in the process of seeing your manuscript through to publication. It may, however, help you ease your way gently into the business of publishing by outlining standard and acceptable procedures for writers approaching publishers. If in doubt about any of the procedures below, contact the ASA for further advice.
