Hi, Karol.

Thanks for posting. My first book: I was 12, and I couldn’t type. My Mom typed my book for me, and packaged it up and sent it to Scholastic Canada, Toronto office. That’s the sum-total of what “I” did. I’m not sure the simple way will work any longer. My advice is for you to go to your library and get a book on Writers’ Markets. It will have all the publishers listed, including contact names, and the type of material they’re looking for. I’m not sure most publishers will even read a ms. that comes without an agent. That same book will have a list of agents as well.

Good luck, Karol. I hope to be writing you a fan letter one of these days!
