Over the past few months, we have had the pleasure of encountering several members who had their writing professionally published in a means that made it possible for others to buy. For a few, we were linked to novels or eBooks on Amazon, Lulu, Barnes and Noble, and other websites.

It's really a wonderful thing for a writer to get their words out in print. :la: Even for those of you who managed to get your work physically printed through a publishing house, it can be very difficult for an author to gather up a fanbase and receive enough advertising for their writing.

As #Writers--club is a group with over ten thousand members, we would like to take a small step toward helping our rising authors. :)

If you have had your work published where it is available for others to buy online, whether it be as a novel, poetry book, short story, eBook, a work as a part of an anthology, please send a note to the group with a link to where it can be purchased. Anyone who has self published is completely welcome to submit a link as well.

From there, we will pick out candidates to be featured as our Members of the Month. We'll pick out several deviations from your gallery and showcase your work with a link to where your published writing can be purchased.

We want to do our part to help out all the rising writers of our time. :D If you think that you will be publishing or self publishing your novel or other form of writing in the future, please feel free to fave this journal and submit your link when the time comes. We will be running this program for many months to come.

And finally, to everyone, keep writing and doing your best! :D

Such a brilliant idea, it's hard to get noticed sometimes! We're co-authors :iconmlatimerridley:, our young adult urban fantasy book was just published there in October; [link]
It would be really nice to see what everyone else is working on too :)

What if you have something that's planned for an anthology, but no information is released about it yet, such as for pre-orders? The one I'm going to be a part of won't be out until July of 2013.

Thank you very much! :la: We will most definitely feature your work; we're giving each applicant a Member of the Month feature, so it may be some time before your feature comes up, but we're keeping a list to get everyone in. :nod:

Is there any advice about publishing you would like to share with your fellow writers? :) There are a lot of members who are curious about various published deviants' endeavors in the process.

I have one book in print..came out in Nov 2010, and is available in virtually every online bookstore in the world, in Hardcover, paperback and ebook formats...but it's a non-fiction that is a highly controversial subject, and probably not suitable for this post...

I also have a fantasy novel that I've been working on. I finished the first rough draft and I'm working on the first rewrite...I'm hoping to finish by March or April...but that is simply a goal.
