Been out a while, been dealing with real life. I teach high school now and write on the side. I have three very beautiful children and a very loving wife so I can say I am blessed. I finished my novel and am trying to get it published, any ideas?

Hmmmm, have you considered self publishing? It's fairly cheap to do online. I'm working on a book myself, but it's illustrated, so I think the rules are a little different. I've been told that self publishing online, like Amazon, can increase your chances of getting a book picked up by a big publishing house .

I have considered that and even looked into it. You can publish almost for free if it's an E book. The only problem is that so many have done this with shoddy work and half assed editing that the E publishing is almost worthless. I have heard that some have gotten picked up and did very well but it seems that sometimes those are the "Twilights" or "Harry Potters" of the E publishing world. In the end I may turn to that but for right now I would like to throw my line out there for an agent. If that doesn't bare fruit then I will seek other avenues.
