I am an author who has reached out to agents for months. I also work in Social Work and am a caregiver. Time and reality are tight. I have decided to do it on my own and published a book on Amazon. I am up keeping groups to advertise. I have short stories, whose goal is to become a single cohesive work. Any advise?
Congratulations, Sonel. It's great you went ahead and published your book on your own. For your short stories, have you taken any writing workshops? Or do you have a group of trusted readers? That is super important. Beyond that, once you feel your stories are ready to send out for publication, definitely start sending them. Hopefully my newsletter can give you a good guide of where to look for markets for your work.
