Book publishing
Hi Jamie
I am in the process of writing a cook book which is delivered in my own words.
I am not an author but have great experience on the topic and the contents within the book.
After writing the manuscript I am now sure of what to do next.
I do not want to spend thousands and get nowhere as I don’t have thousands.
Can you help me
I live in the Middle East so calling or visiting in the UK may be an issue
Regards,
Darren

Re: Book publishing
Welcome to the forum Darren
I am sorry I have no idea how to procded in getting your book published .
But I did chat to some girls the other month on the train , they had been to some sort of writers convention/fayre and talked about how they aproached publishers with a part of theur manuscript,
May be you could do a similar thing bu seeking out the main cookerbook publishing houses and send them an chapter of your book to see if it interests them.
I am sure like all things , you will have to approach many people before you get much in the way of replies .
Good luck
