Introduction
• You become a writer the moment you write something. But to become a
published writer takes more than putting words on a page; it takes
discipline, knowledge and a willingness to learn and work, as well as some
luck.
Tips to Become a Published
Writer
• Honing Your Skills
• Practice your craft
• Network with other writers
• Proofread your manuscript
• Choose a publishing market
• Publishing Your Work
• Accept Your Response
Honing Your Skills
• The best thing you can do to
improve your own writing is to
read the writing of others.
Focus on successful novels to
try to glean tips and tidbits
from the author’s writing style.
What is it about the book
you’re reading that makes it so
deliciously interesting? What
type of plot and characters
intrigue you the most? What
writing style does the general
audience tend to gravitate
towards.
Practice Your Craft
• Write regularly and often; the
more you write, the better you
will become. Although it is
most helpful to actively work
on the book or essay that you
are hoping to get published,
taking time in your day to write
about anything will be
beneficial. Keep a journal to
write things in while you stand
in line running errands or
sitting on the bus.
Network with Other Writers
• Meeting published writers as well as fellow aspiring writers will provide
you with support, encouragement and advice. Fellow writers may also
introduce you to editors, publishers and agents and acquaint you with
other helpful resources.
Proofread your Manuscript
• Although you could have sworn
you didn’t make any spelling or
grammatical errors in your first
draft, it is almost guaranteed
that doing a quick run through
your manuscript will reveal a
few basic errors. No matter
how small the mistake, it is
imperative that you correct all
errors. To avoid embarrassment
and a possible turn-down,
proofread your manuscript
heavily before sending it to be
edited by someone else or to a
publisher.
Choose a Publishing Market
• With a completed manuscript
that has been wholly edited,
it is time to find publishers to
send it to. Before you can do
that though, you must first
select the publishing market
that best suits your work. For
example, visit the Horror
Writers of America or the
Romance Writers of America
websites to see affiliated
publishing agents.
Publishing Your Work
• This is the person who will help to build your reputation and give you an in
in the publishing world. Often, many publishing houses won’t receive
manuscripts from authors without an agent. Look into agents who work
for authors in your genre or who work in your area. Obviously hiring the
most successful agents will give you the best chance of getting published,
but this costs much more money than hiring less successful agents.
Accept Your Response
• After all your time waiting, you will
eventually receive a response about
your manuscript. If you are accepted
and they want to publish your book,
look into the financial side, getting a
copyright for your story, and rights
you retain as the publisher. If you are
turned down, don’t take it
personally. Books are refused for
publishing on a regular basis for a
wide variety of reasons other than
poor plot; your publisher may
already be publishing a similar book,
isn’t into your style, or wants you to
change some aspects of it.
• Abundant Press is publishing company which
provides a supportive atmosphere for self published
authors and indie publishers so that they can
establish yourself as an expert.
