Getting a Manuscript Ready For Publication
Written by Tamara Mazzei   
Wednesday, 07 May 2008

A lot goes in to publishing a book, but one of the most basic things also happens to be one of the most easily forgotten: getting the manuscript ready for publication. This is an issue that only the smallest publishers need to worry about because larger ones have experts to do the job. If you don't have an expert, then you need to hire one or become one. If you think you can avoid this, and simply send a word processing file to your printer, then you risk ending up with a book that readers will instantly dismiss as unprofessional, no matter how great the words inside the book are.

Tuesday, 06 May 2008

Set in the American Civil War, it is the story of Andrea, a Union Army scout and sometime spy, and Alexander Hunter, a Confederate officer who is modeled on real life Confederate hero Colonel John S. Mosby, leader of Mosby's Rangers.
