How can I find an international publisher for my story? and be sure that they will not steal my story?

Answer 1

your best bet is to get an agent. Publishers usually won't even open manuscripts unless it comes through an agent. Read Holly Lisle's answer:

Professionals don't steal ideas. If you find a GOOD reputable agent and publisher, they want to get your book sold. They aren't interestested in stealing it. It is against the code of honor of the AAR.

Answer 2

Implying that a publisher will steal a story is insulting to publishers. They just dont do that sort of thing. I dont know where you are, but first of all publishers dont buy individual stories - they buy novels. Agents dont buy individual stories either. No money in it for them. You dont register a book with the Library of Congress yourself. Your publisher does that for you. Again, to register it yourself implies you dont trust them. It's insulting, amateur and downright non-professional. Most publishers wont even look at material already copyrighted. The only sources you have of publishing a single story is in a magazine or an anthology with other authors or if you put together an anthology of your own. There is no such thing as an international publisher. Rights are negotiated in each individual country where a book is published. Pax - C

Answer 3

They won't steal your story; but, I expect the reason is that, when it became known, they would not receive any more manuscripts to steal -- not that they are all that honorable; just as government security agencies pay spies as agreed, because they would not get any more information, when it became known that they do not honor agreements.

Answer 4

Register it with the Library of congress first; you can download an application on the web. Then look up international copyright laws on the internet. Follow the instructions.

Answer 5

On the Internet.
