Strange Beings Seek Writer

by Ryan Harris
19th April 2022

I am a self-confessed techno-phobe and luddite seeking a writer to give life to my creations "The Spacekins."

The characters are tiny astronauts who live in the Asteroid Belt, they and their environs are made almost entirely from found, salvaged and recycled materials.

I have had interest from several hybrid and self-publishers, but I am not a writer - and I'm afraid my attempts at story telling don't do the artwork justice.

I am keen to inspire a writer of similar humour and imagination to help give these little beings a place in the universe.

Literary Agent

by Christopher Torretto
7th March 2022

Hello everyone , firstly I hope you are all keeping well and being creative.

I am a screenwriter and have several scripts with known directors and producers with connections to Universal and Netflix etc. I sold seven scripts last month alone that are now making major offers of Hollywood stars. I am searching for an agent that can help me deal with contracts and get scripts to those that are unsolicited. I have done well getting contacts and scripts up till now but think it’s time to be represented.

thank you all

self publishing platforms

by lucy munday
13th October 2020

Hi
I have decided to self publish my children's picture book and found an illustrator, which all seems to be going well so far. It feels like such a huge project as its my first time that I'm trying not to overwhelm myself (cos I'll end up telling myself that I can't do it) so for now I'm just looking at platforms to publish with. What do people think of Blurb/ Lulu/ Bookbaby/ Createpsace - in terms of services, pricing, speed, usability, ease for first time publishers?
I've heard that Createspace is 'on its way out'??

Any help is very very welcome! :)

by Danica Fox
18th May 2021

Hi Community,

I have a short Children's story that I have been offered two Hybrid contracts for, by Austin & Macauley and also Olympia publishers.

The problem is I do not have an illustrator and I do not have the funds available for one either.

I'm not sure but an Agent seems the right way to go? -any advice is appreciated.

Kindest regards & thank you

Competition Entry!

by Mark J Braybrook
12th July 2021

Hi All

Just entered my first writing competition in 7 years after various health issues and life events conspired to take away the spark.

Regardless of the outcome it felt good to apply myself to regular and consistent periods of writing and although I only had to write the first chapter and synopsis for the competition I actually completed a whole novel!

Thanks also go out to Richard Elder, Victoria Whithear and Jonathan Hopkins for their wise words which proved invaluable in getting my synopsis done.
