Michael,
Your guide reminded me of the thousand questions I asked of those who were already published. I spent hours asking for advice, and am thankful for the direction I received
from other writers. The time spent prior to the publishing of my first book saved me a lot of problems.
I am working on my sixth book and I can honestly say that all of my dealing with the publishers has been very positive. The information within your guide would have saved my a lot of time and effort when I was starting out.
