A completed manuscript, what to do now?

by Victoria Birkitt
30th December 2011

I have recently completed another manuscript and I'm getting quite bored with how many completed manuscripts I have on my computer and I'm wishing to get one published, yet I can't find an agent and I have 4 publishers interested however I heard bad they each have bad reputations (only discovered afterwards). I am hoping someone can direct me in the right path to hopefully get one published.

Hello Victoria!

Buy the Writers and Artists year book. It has lists of agents and publishers and what genres they accept etc.

It also has lots and lots of useful information about submitting work etc.

Congratulations on completing your manuscript and good luck for the future. :)
