Book Publishers Available to Fiction writers!

Finding book publishers willing to publish your work of fiction can be a tiresome task for any writer. There's a lot involved with trying to get your book published. Keep the faith and keep plugging because success only comes to those that keep trying!

There is a lot of frustration encountered and hopefully you will become accustomed to when dealing with fiction publishers. Rejection letters are the biggest pain in the world for a writer. Don't stop submitting your query letters or manuscripts! The more fiction book publishers you send your query letters to, the more chances you will have at finding the right publisher for you.

First, I'd like to tell you a few things you should look for in fiction publishers before choosing which one you want to publish your book.

1. Attempt to contact a desired publisher via their contact information. If they have email, send then a question or two about the services they provide. If they have a phone number, call them. Make sure they are a legitimate company before doing business with them. If you've heard of the company, they are most likely legitimate.

2. Look at some of the other books the publishers have published in the past. Search for some of the books via other methods as well such as major search engines and see where they are selling them, their average price, and if available, how many of each book has sold.

3. Check to see if the book publishers use print on demand or if they provide the printing services in house. In-house print on demand is okay, but if you have to buy a bulk amount of books when you first agree to a printing, you will incur several thousands of dollars in initial costs that you probably don't have and you will have to find a place to store all of the books in the meantime before you actually get them in stores or sell them outright.

4. Check with the publishers on how much they charge for their services. Publishing is a very inexpensive service and shouldn't cost you more than a thousand dollars (and this is on the high end). There are companies out there that don't charge that much and still provide the highest quality for your fiction books.

There are also book publishers that give you an advance on your book. An advance is just a temporary loan that is paid back with each purchase of your book. You will not see any earnings from your book until after the advance is paid in full. A publisher most likely won't give you an advance unless they are sure your book is going to exceed the expectations of the advance they give you.

5. Check with the Better Business Bureau for the publishers that you are interested in and see if they are listed and in good standing. If there are any major problems with that company, it will definitely show up.

With that out of the way, you are now ready to find fiction publishers to publish your book.

Below is a list of good publishers that I have researched to ensure they are legitimate and worth doing business with. I want you to find the best publisher for your needs as a writer.

Trafford Publishing is a very respected book publisher that deals with a lot of new authors. Trafford uses print on demand to publish your book, you keep 100 percent of your copyright, and Trafford efficiently informs booksellers, librarians and wholesalers, around the globe, about the availability of your books. This is a great publisher if you have some money.

Author House is another great publisher that is very reasonably priced. They produce high quality work and ensure you book is listed in all of the major online book outlets. The have been around since 1997 and are leading the world in helping authors publish their own books.

Publish America is a respected publisher who has produced some great works including one from Elizabeth Moult, Author of 'Doves and Angels'. Make sure if you go through Publish America, you have a good editor go through your book prior to submission, but other than that, they produce some fine work and offer great services on their website.

These fiction book publishers are actually more self-publishing portholes, but they do more of the work than if you self-publish it yourself.

If you prefer to use a traditional publisher, find publishers at Publishing Industry.net. This is a solid resource for publishers and has a great business directory built into their website. Just watch out for the publisher's fees and ensure you make sure they are legitimate businesses prior to submitting and paying for their service.
