Publishing companies?

Hi I'm 12 and I need to find some publishing companies for my fantasy book. (Series, by the way) . And please dont tell me about asking for people's opinions and repeaing all that stuff again...Publishing companies?
You need to take a further look into the publishing process. Authors do not usually (unless very experienced) give their manuscripts strait to the publisher. You need to first have it heavily edited, by yourself and then probably an adult. The first part of publication is finding an agent. This is almost a necessity. Search online for an agent that reads all manuscripts sent to them. They will be in charge of finding the right publisher for your book.Publishing companies?
Finding a publishing company isn't worth squat. Most of them don't take unsolicited manuscripts (which means, they don't take manuscript submitted to them from the author). You have to get yourself a literary agent first.

'The Writer Market' and/or 'The Guide to Literary Agents' (books) will help.Publishing companies?
That's great you are writing. I'm writing too and its impossible to find a publisher. Look online for your area because no one can help you for publishers if they don't know the city you live in. Also, make sure that you are not getting scammed when you look for publishers. Research them to make sure they are legit. If you have any questions, please let me know by commenting.
