Simple Steps To Becoming A Published Author

By Timothy Long


Many writers these days wish to write and publish their works but that can be a bit impossible for now since the competition in this industry is a bit tight. But, one still has a huge chance in making a name and it can take a bit of time. At least, there is a hint of success. There should only be patience so the plan would go well. And, a writer must write a novel or his piece in the most appropriate manner.

If you have been writing for a long time and you still have not seen any progress, the least you can do is to go back from scratch. That way, things would be clean but you might need to follow the right steps to becoming a published author for this. There are several ways and they must be followed as religiously as possible. If not, you might lose your motivation because you remain inconsistent.

Every vacant time you have should be spent here but it depends on you. If nothing has come to your head, you can read. Reading helps and it is the first step to becoming an effective author one day. The successful ones you know today would never be able to achieve their goals without books.

You may not be able to copy everything you have read but you will get the idea and use a bit of that idea to your advantage. It allows you to create a certain concept which would drop the jaws of your publishers and possibly the future readers. One thing you must make sure of is its uniqueness.

Understand and know your characters well. Some would not do this. They just focus on the plot which is a bit frustrating. Paying attention to the plot is okay but it should not be overdone because you will forget the importance of character development. Keep in mind that they are the highlights of it.

If your characters will not develop, the readers would only be disappointed and you shall not allow it to happen. Also, you must take your time. Rushing this would never contribute. It may save your time but it does not really mean the quality is there. It could go wrong which would be very frustrating.

Seek for a publisher once everything is done. There may be tons of publishers around but it does not mean all of them would approve your piece. Again, they are strict when it comes to this so you have to keep that in mind and make sure you present them something that can spark their interest.

Never forget to choose publishers. You must go to the right publisher so your work would not be that neglected. Try looking for the best cover arts. Or, you may hire someone who would do that as well. It benefits you and it will also be your investment. Make sure you do this without any problem.

Lastly, the grammar should not be forgotten. Construct sentences properly and proofread. Hire some editors if need be. That way, they publisher would see a cleaner product.
