I am working on a book as well, have you posted on this site or anywhere else about the process of writing it and getting it published?
Many thanks.
I have a blog,
http://www.deadjournal.com/users/december_quinn/ where I do some of that. It will soon be part of my larger site that the lovely and talented Leah is putting together for me.
PM me if you want info on what to do, what to look for, and what to avoid. Again, my book is only an ebook of short stories at the moment, it's with a smaller ebook press, so I'm not an expert on the ins and outs of the industry in general, but I do know some people with larger credits and do a lot of research.
A good site to check out is Preditors & Editors (spelling is correct):
http://www.anotherealm.com/prededitors/or the Absolute Write Water Cooler message boards, which are loaded with great people and tons of info:
http://www.absolutewrite.com/forums/Please feel free to PM me if you have any questions about anything at all! Or just to tell me about your project! I can probably point you in a few more directions, too.
