Self-Published Novel Picked up by Traditional Publisher - video

I'm new to this entire writing and publishing process. Since you published this book did you try contacting any agents or editors? How was your experience with this first book. I just recently published Bobby's Bully through xlibris.com as well, so just would like to know what the experience was like for you. I'll check out the book as well.

In all the research I have done I've never seen that agents want to receive anything other than a query, a mention of your other publications, and relevant work experience. Conventional wisdom is that if agents are interested in your work they are going to look you up on social media anyway.

Hi Saarah, Yes, if you have self-published, that will not exclude you from finding a traditional publisher if they are looking for a book like yours. Some have even had great success self-publishing first. Best wishes on your journey!

Hi, I am sorry but I cannot hear very well, so it is very difficult for me to understand what you said. I have only one question: Is it OK for another publisher to take my book that I have published with Xlibris? Reply to Saarah D'Armill. Thank you.
