Writer's Life's video: Have You Sent Your Book to Publishers Here s What to Do Next - WritersLife Org

Sending your book off to publishers is an exciting time, and getting everything prepared - your manuscript finalized, your pitch perfected, and your query letter spot on, takes a mammoth effort. However, once you have finally sent your book off to publishers, there can often be rather a long wait time until you hear back from them. In fact, most publishers and agents ask you to wait around six months before you’ll either get a response or if you haven’t heard from them within that time, it means they aren’t interested in pursuing your manuscript further. Six months is a long time to be waiting around for your fate to be decided. While it can be helpful to take a little break and refresh and recover from the intensity of writing a novel and preparing it for submission, it’s not a good idea to rest on your laurels for too long. There are lots of things that writers can be getting on with, in the meantime, and doing so will not only keep them busy but also progressing and moving forward with their writing career too. So what should writers be doing while they wait for publishers to respond? ► Grab your free writer's toolkit by going to http://www.writerslife.org/toolkit ►Where to follow and listen to WritersLife.org: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/writerslifeorg/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/writerslife.org/ Twitter: http://www.Twitter.com/writerslifeorg Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/writerslifeorg/ Google +: http://www.WritersLife.org/googleplus Website: http://www.WritersLife.org Advertising: http://grantcardonetv.com/brandyourself Products: http://www.WritersLife.org/shop Podcast: http://writerslife.org/podcast Join Our Team: http://writerslife.org/contribute/ Advertise your book and.or writing https://www.facebook.com/WritersLifeAdvertisingPlatform/?ref=br_rs ---- ► Thank you for watching this video—Please Share it.
