[DeTutnloench]

she seems to be nice but sometimes her voice is annoying, must costs nerves to discuss with her when she gets angry ;)

if you don't get the book you write published does that mean you give up on that book you wrote and have to start a new one?

[sockembopers12]

@MewRocks17: No, you submit it to all the other publishers that you think will accept it. If that doesn't work, then you start another novel.

wut i f we have an agent?? Huh??

[elinconsciente]

damn, you´re cute.

[GirlWithTheJournal]

Thanks, I understand that =) I didn't know what to be in life, but now I know that I want to write. ( just turned 12 btw)

[krazykelly25]

this is so true. Thats why alot do self publish. I got a book published but people like the secound one better. Those who have read it. So much so that I need to get an agent so I can get it to the right publishing house. The first one wasn't published by the greatest publishing house. And not all publishing houses will except what you have. I had trouble because of the content.

Good advice, I don't find it negative in the slightest, it's just the truth. That life doesn't always get you what you want. And if your not prepared to handle a failure, you may never be able to pick yourself back up for a success

@TradersPost: this may or may not be true, but i read once that Stephen King threw his novel Carrie in the trash and basically said "f*** it" to writing, then his wife supposedly retained it from the trash and sent it in under his name.

True or not, I'm not sure but hey, if it is then perhaps if it weren't for his spouse we would be calling some horror writer the best writer of horror in the US.

[johnmonk66]

true that his wife pulled it out of the trash and told him to finish it, not true he gave up writing, he went on to something else

[madmethod21]

Thanks for the advice. By the way, I find you very attractive.

I share the information on my channel that helped me become a published author. Go to my playlist and search for writing vids.

[riofrank]

you are a very negative person. sorry. tips & advice? OOKKK !

[rachelsanders2]

I bet she has red pubes and puffy nipples

[CptGrunt1227]

Seriously, when I think about my novel not getting publish I get really down. Like because I've spent about almost two years developing the plot -- really actually figuring out how to approach it.

But You know, I'll take not getting published fine...But of course I'll be kinda ticked.

[sunnylittlelemons]

bull!

[spungii117]

I r Professional writer

[clearevil]

I r Professional writer 2

[spungii117]

that r so cool!

[evadanca777]

Dont tell yourself that it may never get published! Thats bull. The most successful authors will tell you to keep trying and never give up. It doesnt matter how long it takes, KEEP TRYING TIL U GET PUBLISHED! This girl is stupid.

[ktbgreat]

she only said be realistic..keep trying, of course because it is all great practice,but don't give up if you dont get everything published. You know as well as I do that not everything you write will be published, honestly, but knowing that, keep going anyway.

[johnmonk66]

you sound like those losers on american idol who tell simon he is wrong, where are they now? just because you bust your ass writing a book you think is brilliant doesnt mean anyone will ever buy it. but if you are writing only to get published, you have already failed

[aytches]

'you'd hit that?' ...c'mon guys... we came to these videos for advice... it's pretty obvious that she's good looking, but it doesn't relate to the video!

[zanpaktuh]

i hit that

[angieoya]

Very helpful!

[elfieears96]

yeah good advice. You have to find a balance of negative and positive thoughts to the publishing of the book. :)

[al2phat]

You can be my expert, hot-stuff.

[rarecloud]

Dude you obviously know nothing about Women!

Alpha? My ass!

[colombiankitty]

ew- that is all i basically have to say

[hemanshera777]

is Manuscript another word for a Stage Scipt?

[rarecloud]

No, basically it's just something written by HAND rather than printed to be published... I just looked it up myself since I shared the same question!

[johnmonk66]

no, a manuscript is any unpublished novel

[Jadedlovely]

This is very informative. Thank you, finally a clear cut explanation on how to write a proper manuscript. ;-)

[L8rSc8r]
