How do I go about getting a children's book published?

Answer 1

There are a couple of options.

First, you can submit your manuscripts to publishers either by yourself or through a literary agent. Use caution in who you submit to. There are a lot of unscrupulous people out there posing as agents and publishers, just to steal manuscripts.

Second, you can self-publish through a small or vanity press. There is a cost in this to you, but there is a higher profit return if you can market you book well.

Check out these sites...

http://www.authorhouse.com (a publisher)
http://www.writersdigest.com (lots of good info)
http://www.dinoandspike.com (a friend of mine who is a children's author who self-publishes)

Good Luck!

Buy the paperback book, Writer's Guide to Markets, for a list of Literary Agencies and Publishers. Information for submitting manuscripts is listed.
