Do You Want to Write a Book?
And get it traditionally published
It’s likely that a good number of writers here on Medium (and elsewhere) look forward to one day publishing a book. This may take the form of self-publishing by way of an e-book or other form. Or you may want to go the traditional publishing route.
I’ve written some short stories that I’d like to one day see as part of a collection or even as a novel. I also write some consumer finance pieces that I think could form the basis of an e-book.
I do, also, think about the benefits of traditional publishing — even though going from finished manuscript to final, published book can be quite a process.
How, then, do you start?
Well, I don’t (yet) have a full manuscript. That’s really step one.
But, then what?
Well, Dana Leigh Lyons is going through this process right now. Even better, she’s chronicling her experience right here on Medium.
