Where can my friends and i find a publisher for our book?

I'm 14 love to wright and I guess I'm pretty good at it. M and my friend are working on a book togeather. there will be 4 sides to it. we plan on getting in published. Where do we go? how do we find a publisher? dose anyone know? and can they help?

Hi,

Most big book publishers don't deal directly with authors- you need to find an editor or agent first. They will help you edit and polish your story (and I think they'd definitely work on your spelling a bit..) and then once it is polished, the agent (who you pay) will have to find you a publisher.

To find an agent, look to Literary Marketplace. It is the Yellow Pages of the book business. Your local library should have a copy in their reference section, and some bookstores carry it as well (with a price tag of about $150). The publisher section lists complete addresses and names of editors; the agent section lists agencies' specialties, and all of their appropriate manuscript submission requirements.

Good luck!

I hope you spell better in your book than you do in your query.
