I am fairly new to this and I'm finding it very interesting. It is however difficult to navigate around to all the different subjects. I am finding it very difficult to find an agent or publisher who will publish my books, because I write stories with a combination of all the genres plus because I'm new not many will take on an unknown author. I can't afford to self publish, also what do I do? some people have told me to find a literacy agent and some say don't. I'm so confused. Some say just go to a publisher, but where do i go to find a genuine publisher and not a vanity scam one?

The cover of your book should reflex the expectation of what the story will be about. It is important that the visual impact should be compelling, to capture the buyer's attention. ( The eyes and the mind.)
