For starters, I do not have a degree in english, nor in anything yet. I am 30 years old and an atheist. I am writing a book that, if all goes according to plan, will demonstrate what it is like to be an atheist in todays society as well as comparing and contrasting being religious and not religious.
My problem is, I have no idea where or how I can get this published, if at all, once it is completed.
Has anyone here had a book published? How hard is it to find an agent to turn your script in to the publishers for you?
My wife wrote an excellent childrens book and tried for 3 years to get it published, always hearing back that "We do not accept unsolicited manuscripts" from the big publishing houses. No agents were willing to take on her case without charging an insane fee up front.
We have looked in the literary guide for both agents and publishing houses.
I do not want to fall into this same situation, any advice ahead of time would be well taken.
Thank you.
