I'd advise you to check your local phone directory or to go to your local libary and to ask them for help.

Dallas or New York to open up a publishing company? 10 points?

My girlfriend and I are either thinking about moving to Dallas or New York,Ny to start our life together. Being that i'm opening a publishing company soon



What place would be better suited for that?

.

Each city has it's own advantages and its kinda a difficult decision to make.



Dallas is known for having many successful companies and fortune 500 companies, while New York, Ny is New York.



Opinions plz?Dallas or New York to open up a publishing company? 10 points?
NYC.Dallas or New York to open up a publishing company? 10 points?
Yes New York City is New York even with all the glitz

BUT Texas has no income tax, cost of living is cheaper, climate is much better, population is growing, more corporations moving there, and life is a little slower and more relaxing.

If you're young and just starting out it's a no brainer - TEXAS

Where can i find publishing companies for a new book?

First have to make strong suggestion you read the first section (only, for now) of a current edition of The Writer's Market: "How to Publish."

Read it until you know it all, very very well. [ADD: It's online too, safe link: http://www.writersmarket.com though it costs $3.99/month to read all of it. But you can at least take a look.]

If you can't afford it, study it at a public library, and make notes and copy pages (free there) of all relevant pages.



This is necessary to publish properly. [ADD: if you don't know already]

There are several steps to follow before deciding on either agent, editor or publisher.

After you know all of them and have checked via links in book who is reputable in the field you want to publish, THEN look up names of agents or publishers, and follow steps you then know.



It's a lot of work and takes time.

Be patient, persistent and optimistic in the face of rejections. I got a whole lot of rejections before publication; then job as journalist, published lots of short fiction, one play to success and some bad poems. By then things were a lot easier %26amp; remain so.



If you're wanting to 'self-publish,' realize that for most authors, that is a dead-end; you won't see your books in bookstores unless you have lots of capital, connections and can self-promote a good quality extremely well. Since vanity press doesn't offer any editing, promotion and sometimes give you a product not really agreed to, it is a very dicey thing to do. I alway advise against that.



If you have yet to have anything at all in print, suggest you try for a short piece published (even for free) via local paper, local lit publication, contest (they usually cost a readers' fee); any venue you find. This is for something to show prospective agents. They like to see that you have successfully had a piece published before.

Best of luck with all...Where can i find publishing companies for a new book?
Writer's Market is a great book that lists Agents, Publishers and Editors as well as all kinds of other resources. I would try to get an agent to represent you before I went looking ofr publishers . . .Where can i find publishing companies for a new book?
Edit your book several times to make it the best it can be, type it in proper manuscript form (visit http://www.writersdigest.com to find out what is needed), consider joining a local writer's group to get feedback from other would-be writers, and get it proofread by someone who knows what they are doing (don't rely just on spellcheck). Edit it some more.



There are a tiny number of publishers that accept unsolicited manuscripts (those that don't go through a literary agent), so getting an agent first is a really good idea.



At the library or bookstore is Guide to Literary Agents, published by Writer's Digest, or Bowker's Literary Marketplace (or visit http://www.agentquery.com). Look for agents that specialize in your genre, and are looking for new clients. Read, and follow, their submission guidelines. In those books will be something about writing a query letter, which is what you send to the agent, first. It's part synopsis of your book, and part explanation as to why your book deserves to be published. You have only that one-page letter to wow the agent, so take the time to make it a good one. Expect the whole process to take lots of time, and expect many rejections. When you are accepted by an agent, they will send your book to publishers, not you.



Good luck!Where can i find publishing companies for a new book?
It's best to have a self-publisher when you want to publish immediately. You don't have to go through the hassle of having your manuscript edited and approved. In self-publishing, you have full-control of your story.



Self-publishers also offer marketing services for your book if you don't want to do it yourself. But then, even JK Rowling does her own book promotions. NO one can best promote the book than the book author.



There are different schools of thought about self-publishing. Here's my two cents: be very careful in choosing the right one. Work with a self-publisher that is known for its integrity and excellence in service.

What is the difference between a publishing company and an imprint company?

What is the difference between a publishing company and an imprint company?What is the difference between a publishing company and an imprint company?
A publishing company is the company that publishes and distributes a book. An imprint is the company name that a book is printed under. A publisher may have multiple imprints.

In a much more generic way, you could say that publishers are big, somewhat faceless, corporations, whereas imprints are personalities and carry specific meaning to the consumer.

Think of imprints as "brands" owned by a larger company (the way PepsiCo, the company, sells the Pepsi brand, the Gatorade brand, the Tropicana brand, the FritoLay brand, and the Quaker Oats brand).



For example, think of an educational publisher. The Publisher may be John Doe publishing company. But they may own several smaller units or imprints -- say the name "Kid Friendly" for publishing kindergarten books and the name "College Ready" for high school books. The name "Kid Friendly" has its own marketing material and positioning in the market, distinct from "College Ready," even though both are owned by the same John Doe Publishing company.



Likewise, when one company buys another, they often keep the imprints of the previous company because of brand loyalty. Say John Doe sold "Kid Friendly" to Joe Schmo Publishers. Joe Schmo Publishers already has a kindergarten book publisher named "Let's Learn." Now they own the "Kid Friendly" brand/imprint AND the "Let's Learn" brand/imprint. They could combine them, but some customers are used to buying "Kid Friendly" brand and won't want to buy 'Let's Learn" brand, even if they are the same books written by the same people, so the company prints under both names.



Also, in another scenario, a company might want multiple imprints to distinguish its own products from one another in the marketplace. Say, again, an educational publisher has multiple books that are sold to very similar markets, but they want to differentiate them, such as two different biology books for high school. One biology book is for Advanced Placement students; the other is for low-level students. So the same company prints the AP book under the brand/imprint "College Ready," which they use for all the books in their AP line, and the low-level book under the name "You Can Learn," which they use for all low-level books. That way, the customer knows at a glance that a "College Ready" book, regardless of the subject is for advanced students.



Helpful?What is the difference between a publishing company and an imprint company?
The publisher is the umbrella company for the products in each imprint. Most imprints are identifiable genres for each company. Harlequin Blaze books are their more hot and steamy stuff while Harlequin Inspiration is the family oriented stories that usually have no intimacy. Kensington has Aphrodesia for their alternative erotica like same sex or vampire sex with blatant violence and wicca that is based on reality rather than fantasy. Brava is romance Dafina is African American women's romance.



---- And I don't think an ISBN number is given to self published books although some companies do have a limited ability to catalog books and get a legitimate ISBN but I'm sure if you ran it through a bookstore database they wouldn't come up. Those numbers are only for bookstores they have associations with and not on a national level.What is the difference between a publishing company and an imprint company?
Basically same thing, different names. The imprint is the name of the book publisher. You might have a major publisher that has split their business into many different imprints (for instance, they may have separate imprint names for children's books, nonfiction, adult fiction, spiritual, etc.).



Even if you self publish, you need to have an imprint name to get the book's ISBN (the unique number used to catalog the book), so you'd create your own imprint name (for example, Hopes and Dreams Press).

    What publishing houses accept unsolicited manuscripts?

    Over the past year I have been working on a romance novel, and now I'm ready to publish it. I've looked into some different options but I'd really like to publish traditionally. My only problem is that I can't find many publishing companies that take unsolicited manuscripts. I can't afford a literary agent so this is my only option. Any suggestions?What publishing houses accept unsolicited manuscripts?
    Your can start your own publishing house. It's easy. You register it, buy the copyrights (not very expensive, really) and then you can print out like 200 copies or something. Make your friends and family buy it.. If they like it, you'll increase your chances of getting published.. i guess.

    Good luck anyway :)What publishing houses accept unsolicited manuscripts?
    I'd like to know what options you've looked into that made you believe that you have to pay literary agents. I suggest you research again. This time utilizing credible sources. Go to the library or bookstore and pick up some books on publishing.
