How do you go about getting a book published?

I would like to write a book some time. It would be about my life. I have a lot of interesting things to write. I also have a lot of things I want to share that I'm sure other people in this world would feel the same about or would feel as though they may share some things in common with me. However, I have had several terrible things happen in my life that has made me a stronger person. I just want to know how to go about writing a book, finding someone to go over it, and see if it can be published. Does anyone know all the steps it takes to getting a book published? If anyone does, let me know. That would be helpful for near future reference. Thanks!

Here's the rundown on writing. Make sure that your family and friends are not just paying you lip service when they say your writing is great and you have a talent. From what I see in your ideas, you have a pretty good grasp on the English language, spelling and grammar.

First you have to have a plot. Nevermind the characters for now. The plot and the point of view POV are two of the most important parts of a novel, or short story.

Once you have that down, then you'll think about who and what your characters are. You’ll need a protagonist and an antagonist. Do you know what those mean? Will one be a female? Will one be a male? Maybe they’ll both be either female or male.

What you’ll need to do is get your hands on a book about writing a novel. Go to your bookstore or library and look one up. I have over $300.00 dollars invested in books that are helpful to a writer. You will also need to have a firm grasp on the English language in spelling and grammar.

Once you write your book, you’ll want to make sure that it’s edited properly. NEVER let a family member read your work unless they can give you an honest opinion. Lip service does neither you nor your writing any good. You’ll need an honest opinion.

You’ll need a copy of Writer’s Market. In there you will find literary agents, both their snail mail and email addresses. You will have to write a query letter and give the agent a synopsis of the story. Know this: Any mistakes in grammar or spelling will be an automatic reject. This also goes for your manuscript.

The books you buy from a bookstore or borrow from a library regarding how to write should also include how to format your manuscript and a sample of a query letter.

In your case you want to write non-fiction. It's basically the same routine, but you'll have to talk with people who will be covered in your book and make sure they are aware of your intentions. Your best bet would be to go to your favorite bookstore and purchase a book on writing both fiction and non-fiction. The library probably has one or two, but you can't use a highlight marker on their books. You'll want to highlight points of interest to research later on, especially any of the legalities.

There’s a lot more to it than just sitting down and writing a story.

Good Luck!
