Are you interested in getting published? Want to know what happens to a writer on the journey to getting published? This is one fiction writer's personal experience step by step. It's both a memoir and a tool for new writers. It is not a book containing advice on how to get published. On the contrary, it is a shared experience to provide knowledge and information to those writers who do research and want to know more. So, if you have questions about the process of publication and want to know the steps one person took to get there, this might be the book for you.

I plan to update this weekly as the journey to publication moves forward. The chapters aren't currently in real time since I'm not yet to the part in the book where I've been offered the contract, but eventually I foresee it will catch up to real time.All Rights Reserved

Publishing Your Book? Traditional or Self-Publish? by vampiretop10

After seeing fellow writers on Wattpad talk about their dreams of publishing, I decided to post a guide on what I understand about the publishing process based on my experiences, the books I've read and the resources available out there.

Touch In The Dark by BabyGurl5119

Evelyn already lost her mother; how could it get any worse? At least that's what she thought. She's forced to move in with her estranged father where she also meets her stepmother and stepbrother. Evelyn knew what she needed to do, and that's getting a job and returning home. When she can't find a job, her stepbrother, Dimitri, offers her one. Innocent enough, right? Little does she know; she's thrown headfirst into the mafia world. Her feelings for Dimitri grows as she's forced to live with him, but her boyfriend, Mark, is someone her mother would be proud to see her with. Will her dreams change? Will she change? Excerpt: "Ask me nicely." His sultry voice twists my stomach in the best of ways. "Wha- what do you mean?" I mentally kick myself for allowing his power to rule me. This only builds his ego. He leans forward towards my face, his nose barely touching mine. "What is it that you want, piccola." He whispers. What did I want? Oh! That's right, I wanted to leave. "I would like to leave." I take a step back from him so I can focus. A special thank you to Anulekha Kashyap for creating this beautiful book cover! #1 in Mafia #6 in lovetriangle #1 in boyxgirl #1 in stepbrother #1 in daddyissues #5 in romance #1 in forbidden #1 in sexscenes #1 in gangleader #1 in sexy #1 in Italian #1 in matureaudience

Contract Marriage: I've always loved you ✅ by mehaklovely

He fell in love with the girl he had a one-night stand with. When her true nature revealed, he hated himself for loving her and decided never to see her again. However, his fate took an unexpected turn and entangled him in a contract marriage with her, turning the girl he despised into his temporary wife. Will their love-hate relationship lead to a deeper connection, or will it keep them forever bound by the terms of their contract? *** As I spank her, Grace questions in a surprised tone, "What was that?" "That was for leaving your husband alone in the pool," I respond in a teasing tone, seizing her waist and pulling her towards me, stealing her breath. "But, my dear husband, you're pissing me off. Just move away." She tries to break free from my grasp. "Stop moving, Mrs Grey!" "No, I won't listen to you, Mr Grey. You told me you don't want me, so why are you here again?" "I didn't say that I don't want you," I whisper, closing the distance between us, my lips nearing my angry wife's. "It means the same!" She rolls her eyes. "I want you so damn much, okay? And I'm ready to regret it again and again for doing this. Today, I'll show you how much I desire you, my wife." I confess, my fingers playing with her wet hair, and my hand still firmly gripping her waist. "So tell me. Who is stopping you, husband?"

My Life, My Story, On My Terms by BrittanyTravasos

I titled this book my life, my story, on my terms because it's exactly that. I wrote this book in to be able to finally speak my truth about the events that have happened to me and it finally is personalized without any other take on what somebody else thought or what somebody else believes or intake is on all of it. After so long of being told things from others especially those that have never gone through what I have before for so long, I've finally reached a complete point of totally keeping other's opinions out of this. I'm here to tell my story, from parts of my life, and it's all on my terms. I'm the one that went through it, and am here to speak the truth about it. I must say, it feels awesome to be able to finally release this book for all to read my story. I truly hope in return, not only will you no longer have questions about me if you did before, that I will also have inspired or helped you in some sort of way, whether emotionally, mentally, or in a soul type of way and understanding. I explain what's happened in my life, why it's happened, and the solutions I've come too.

The Mistress: Her revenge [18+] by Delphinerosewrites

[COMPLETED][UNEDITED] WARNING: Not your typical story. A forbidden relationship awaits you. 18+ I felt his fingers move within me once more, slipping out only to be replaced by two, then three. His wedding ring gleamed in the dim light, now slick with my juices, a symbol of everything wrong with this moment-and yet, it thrilled me to see it there, marked by my pleasure. The sight sent another pulse of heat through me, twisting that forbidden excitement even tighter around my core. "Do you like seeing that?" he asked, his voice low, taunting. "Do you like marking me while my wife waits at home?" I shivered at the raw edge in his tone, my hips pressing harder against him, wordlessly begging for more. "Yes," I whispered, my voice barely a breath. "I love it." _______ On the eve of her wedding, Esmeralda's life was torn apart by her best friend's ultimate betrayal. Two years later, with a broken heart still simmering beneath the surface, she set her sights on her revenge: seducing her ex-friend's husband, Sebastian. What begins as a calculated plot to make her best friend pay for her betrayal soon turns into a dangerous web of desire, where every encounter deepens the pull to that married man. But as their trysts spiral out of control, Esmeralda finds herself caught between the thrill of retribution and a love she never anticipated. When the lines between revenge and passion blur, she's forced to confront the truth-can she truly walk away, or has she fallen too far into the fire?
