How do I become a published writer?

And I want to put out books so that people can connect to me because I write really good stuff. Like, I could reach out to people far away, just talking about the things that I go through. People usually can relate to others if they've been through something similar. And I was just wondering what you guys thoughts on this. Please get back to me and thank you for listening

Number nine include your contact information on the submission letter. Make sure that you use your real name, not your Pinname. Email names, Twitter handles and social media are not considered. They are considered unprofessional, so don't use those. But understand that with traditional, the publisher has the rights to your book deal. Exact conditions are going to depend on the publisher. The managing team of the publisher makes most of the decisions, and the book can take up to two years to publish

There's multiple ways you can self publish and get your book on Barnesandovo.com and different other platforms, Amazon, and then you just have to promote it yourself versus where if you actually wait for someone to pick up your book and all of that stuff, they're going to take royalties and all of that from you. So you will definitely not have the power that you're need to have
