u just have to get the adress of a local publishing house, show them what you've written and they'll decide whether your book is good enough to be published

I sure am! But I heard that traditional publishers are picky when it comes to stories and retain almost all rights of your book that you have to buy back, and there are some scheming self-publishers that just take your rights over your novel and give you no royalties for their sales (ever heard of "the poor man's patent", where you mail your manuscript to yourself and do not open the envelope to retain your rights? That's a sham self-publishers created because they knew that that move will not hold up in court whenever you sue for your rights back because it's not a legal (or true) patent!) So I'm going to go with Createspace in Amazon. That is, after I look more into them and see all that they offer. Advertising my book will be hard considering the fact that they won't do that for me, but it's better than these alternatives.

I don't know. I'm really back and forth about it. It's my first completely trilogy, in the process of being edited, and while I love it, I'm just not sure it's ever going to be ready.
Eventually I want to publish something, or at least try to. I'm just not sure I've found that one idea I think has the potential to make it.

Of course! What's the point in spending years of your life writing something, if you aren't even going to bother publishing it?

Maybe, but sometimes I write really lame stories (those usually fall under some fanfictions though I write good fanfics too) just to exercise my creative muscles.

I would love to publish my work... I think it's amazing in some ways but just not amazing enough to get published. I know a lot about writing, but If only I could just get the strength to go publish it and if its not good enough go Work on it harder, But the strength hasnt came yet.
