What Chance?

by ELSIE BYRON

Hi all. I have recently read that most, if not all, publishers and agents will always lean to the more established writers other than take a chance on new ones. If this is the truth, what chance do us budding/aspiring writers have? It's the same with script writing. The media tend to also prefare who or what they know. Is there anyone out there who would give a 'newbie' writer a chance? If there is it would be good to know who and where.

Elsie, us would-be authors live the dream of being published. Otherwise, we wouldn't bother to write. The chance of having a successful career in writing is slim, but I have to believe there is room for a debut author to squeeze in alongside those at the top.
