>I need advice from all you author types out there. My 15 year old daughter has written a book and would like to send it to a publisher. I don't know how to do this or where to begin. She thinks she can just get the address from Random House and mail it off. Any suggestions from this literary group? >Patti > >Please respond privately since this is not really related to our favorite sage actually i'd like to hear on the matter if anyone knows anything Well, at 15, I tried to get my first book published, and 3 months later, at the age of 16, it was published by an obscure local company. However, it was never marketed. Not that my experience helps you any.... Mike
