Starting cold turkey in getting your book published you go and look at
books simular to what you are writing. Mostly in simular style and close
to the same subjects such as other phobias or other mental disturbances.
These are the publishers that usually would be interested in your subject
and style of writing. Then there are books out there that will give you
guidelines step by step how to do a cover letter and prepare your
manuscript. At a bookstore like Borders should have a book that
describes as how to write and submit your writings. It's been a few years
since I've submitted anything so maybe things have changed but that's
what I know. I hope you success. Just try to commit to write a little bit
everyday. That's what I have to do with my art and then as it turns out I
usually work longer than planned. But to be totally honest lately I haven't
had the time especially since I saw the Dr. Phil show and found out there's
a name to what I've suffered with for I hate to say how long. You all sound
so young. It does get better. I've struggled with emet for 44 yrs. and have
many, many stories of failures and success.
All I can say after everything is said and done is, God is faithful :-D
