What is the process in which books made? Like between the writer and the publisher and the editor??? PLZ HELP!

Answer 1

The writer sells his manuscript to a publisher, either directly or through a literary agent. The publisher then takes the book through all the steps of printing it.

The editor gives the author suggestions, which he may or may not follow. The editor then passes the ms to the illustrator, the copy editor, the designer, the jacket designer, the production supervisor, etc. The author hasn't got much to do with this, though. His job is research, writing, and editing, mostly.

Answer 2

It depends on the author. If the author has published a book before, she submits her new book to the publishing house after informing her literary agent. If the author has never published a book before, the whole process is different. The author has to work on selling her book idea to either a literary agent or a small publisher. A big publishing house won't bother with any unpublished author unless the author has a literary agent. If the book is given a GREEN LIGHT by a publishing house, the book is submitted then returned for editing by the author. Then the author works with the book editor to shape the final draft of the book. Usually first time author's must listen to every word and suggestion a book editor makes.

Answer 3

Most book projects start with an idea. Usually the idea turns into a proposal that gets pitched to a publisher or agent.
If it's good enough, the writer may get an agent or possibly be in contact with the publisher. Copy-editing and proofing is a two- or three-phase process in which people go over the text, cleaning up mistakes in grammar, spelling and style.

Answer 4

There is a book that is revised on a yearly basis called The Writer's Market. Buy the book!!! It gives advice as well as listing publishers and what kind of books the publishers are looking for!
