i'm going to try and have a book of writing published
 

but have no fucking idea how to do it

wish me luck

@Zen

Good luck b.

Well, first step is to write well
You’re good

I believe in you and I'll buy it.

Also @Ghost1 can you link me to V's book, keep meaning to buy it.

same! hope i helped with whatever i had saved from you. if that is even the theme?

I don't even save porn on my phone but I have at least 10 deadman pieces.

True story.

Hyperbole house by James murphy

I'd read it. Your poetry is fuckin' awesome.

Amazon?

An yea man that's pretty cool

I just enrolled into community college to become a teacher.

I'm going back for computer science and feel like I could be a prof so m9fhtnjust get my masters and teach community college shitheads how to code

gone

Appreciate the love, Fox.

i'll buy it and support you like i supported veritas.

i finished v's book by the way. once i let myself get into it, it was entertaining. i also ruined my copy, i had it under my sink in the cabinet of my bathroom, and i left my sink running and it overflowed.

so i will purchase a kindle version as well next time i remember. to support the creative outings of my fellow NCG's

Theres a book. V?
Wtf. Lets have this.link. godspeed

It’s literally 3 posts above yours

2 people read it?

lmao pretty sure @YDK had a book out too under the name David Kuhn that I used as a roach previously

Bookcees should cover Veritas book

I want to read Vs book. Just cause NCG shit

i would buy this for sure

how the fuck do i even start this process
@veritas

just submit to journals? publishers?

bro

www.submittable.com

make an account

start submitting to acclaimed journals/magazines

leverage those publishing credits to boost your resume/credits

then contact agents

also go to the yearly AWP conference

but most importantly write a fuck ton and have a good and polished manuscript before you start shopping to agents

amazon is one way to do self-publishing

depending on if you literally just want to make a book, sure that suffices

but tryna get in the literary game (like having your shit on shelves and being somewhat living from a portion of your writing) you'd prolly wanna get a top agent and publish on stronger publishing houses.

If you’re still asking at this point then you don’t have the drive.

Just do it.

Oh ok. Thanks @everyrhyme

Think about it. This thread was made 3 months ago and you’re on Netcees asking advice from Veritas who couldn’t sell 100 copies of his book. All it takes is some research and some ambition. You can self publish, you should know all about what it takes to get published the traditional way if that’s what you want. Main thing about being published traditional way is they will want rights to your work so you shouldn’t be putting your work online because then it’s free. Get to it fam, do your research and get with people who are in the same field you want to be in. Let’s get it.

Aero right.
The dude that managed crunchy black from 3 6 mafia hit me up. Gave me his personal cell number. We talked. He wanted to manage me. But first thing he needed was my shit to be copywrited and all that jazz. Basically had to do some work and spens some money before he would manage me. Was talking movies and all kinds of shit. But i was like ...im gucci.

Anyway. Just here to say that yeah. You should get your shit copywritten first. At least the piecesnu intend to publish in your book. Then from there it should be a lot easier. Im pretty sure there is a site where you can copywrite a bunch of works together at one time for the same price as you would pay for each individual piece. Find that site is my suggestion. Cant remember its name. But have your ducks in a row basically. Hope you do this though

I hate to be captain obvious here (swidt) but how many copies has your book sold maestroh?

@deadman get an editor first. Probably need a freelancer just so that your ish is tight. Let me know after you did that then we can talk next steps

all the circle-jerking poets around me irl are getting published and i'm a better writer than most, if not all of them.

there seems to be a vested pursuit of external validation for this inherently personal process.

i can't help you.

Can you teach me how to be a better writer

tattoo dostoevsky on your face.

Talking to deadman

motherfucker.

Yo all these topical heads are irrelevant to the board. All they do is write poems that no one reads anyways might as well get it published. Deadman and a couple others are the only ones people read.

Sheeesh

It makes me feel good when people read line

Mine

So none outside of message boards write poetry?
