I Want to Be a Published Author

So after working on my book and that includes rewriting it completely 3 times over in over 10 years, I sent in some to a publisher. They want to publish it!! They deemed it a "fantastical read" and more praise I won't repeat cause it still gets my ego going.....which is great and all but since then I can't write! Anyone ever experience this?

Congrats! I am working on being a published author too, but the thought of it actually terrifies me to the point of not completing my work.

@emPATHicwarrior33 that's what it is for me.

@PrivateHell I hope you overcome that, if you have words you feel need to be out there. Never be afraid of your voice. Friend told me that once.

@emPATHicwarrior33 what's it about? is it fiction?

emPATHicwarrior33 · 31-35, M

@Penny it is indeed. To sum it up it's....well it's tricky to explain. My tagline is "we all expect them to save us but what if a superhero got pissed off"

@Penny i feel like if people who were gifted came about and saw how the world is now. Maybe they'd fight for it's condition rather than for us

Brilliant!

(and I'm sure it'll come back to you).

@SW-User thank you! I sure hope so. I feel so underutilized!

It's unusual that a publisher would agree to read it. Is it one of those places where you have to shoulder all the cost?

emPATHicwarrior33 · 31-35, M

@Success not all costs. Some though yes.
