I'm writing a novel called fate of helena, does anyone know what I should do with the book once its finished to get it published??? whats the next step? thanks

@echizen180 - Once your manuscript is written, revise it and purchase the "2011 Writers Market" book from Amazon.com. It will tell you all the steps to take to get the book published. Generally it's a) write a query letter & send it to agents and b) if a literary agent signs you, he/she will try to market the book OR (and this is a big OR) you can try to self-publish via Amazon.

Hi, Thanks for posting, I have a lot of questions, I am working on an insspirational self help book and I would like to know How soon it took for an agent to sale your book? Also, I read online that publishers only publish writers with credentials, Is that so?

[SergeiItzamCoiot]

I have yet to actually SELL it, however, if you wrack up some small credentials like in magazines for articles agents will look at you with a more interested eye.
