I wrote a 56 page rough draft book while in Prison?

Question

It's about how I accidentally became involved with a family by getting my girlfriend pregnant.Her family were weed dealers on a very large scale smuggling protraying thimselves as very disfunctional Jehovah's Witness's from Alabama and inevitably brought me in the family business.I eventaually graduated to robbing banks which landed me in prison and gave me the chance to write this book The stories are extremely crazy but so crazy anyone reading would know I wasnt making it up.Over 300 inmates read my rough draft that was hand printed and ever single one of them told me it was the best story they had ever read and every single person wanted to know more. Because I lived the life I grew bored with it after writing it.. But it is extremely funny and from what i have been told could one day be a Hollywood Block Buster if I just found the right person to hear me out. I have no idea how to wrie a book but I can tell a story like no other person. Does Anyone have any suggestions or advise

Answer 2

I really enjoy writing so it ends up being pretty easy for me, BUT I always have to do it at night. I am much better at staying up until 3am to get it done, then using the next day for revision. You don't want to just bust one out and turn it in without going over it (even though it is a rough draft). To be entirely safe, I wouldn't stay out too late...then at least get started on it tonight so you have a direction of some sort for tomorrow. Or make an outline so that you know exactly what you want to write about. The last thing you need is to be stressing out tomorrow because you don't even have a topic in mind. Good luck! You should be able to do this :)

Answer 3

Yeah. Write it and get it published. I noticed that many of the best (most realistic) stories are based on people's actual experiences. Be sure to ask your local library for a copy of "Writer's Market." It has a list of publishers, many of which may be interested in publishing your story, and tips from real publishers and writers on how to get published. If you're going to go Hollywood, though, make absolutely certain that you get a reputable agent. Hook up with other Hollywood writers who know the ropes. Good luck to you, pal.

Answer 4

You need to submit your work to literary agents. Don't mail them the whole rough draft, start with your first story, chapter, etc.

You may have to make at least the first part of your book not a rough draft before someone will look at it.

Also, make sure you don't give away your ideas or your stories. You don't want someone publishing your book, but denying that you wrote it.

And don't pay someone to publish your book. There are lots of greedy, dishonest people out there who want to take advantage of your innocence and enthusiasm.

Good luck!

Answer 5

Yes. Go to a college and try and find an English major to help you write the book. Make sure you register the book as your own intellectual property so that no one can take it and claim it as their own.
Sounds very interesting. Good luck!

Also.....if there is anyway to e-mail me the book or at least part of it, I'd love to read it!

Answer 6

Try contacting publishers, or find an agent. I know it can be difficult to get published, but my friend from HS is a "nobody" and now has his book on the shelves at Barnes and Noble, etc.
