Finished writing your manuscript? Let’s learn about Editing & Publishing it.
Editing, Publishing & followed by Marketing are all equally important steps for success of the book or for you as an author to continue in your writing journey.
Getting published by one of the top publishers is a dream for most authors, none of them accept unsolicited manuscripts (submitted directly from authors). So making the role of a literary agent, writing a perfect pitch and doing a thorough edit are extremely important.
