I don't know if it's of any use, but depending on what your ambitions are, I can put you in touch with a publisher who might be interested in your work?

I use a self-publishing platform because I'm pretty convinced no publisher would touch what I write. Nowhere near mainstream enough. Also, I like the freedom, and lack of pressure. No limitations or deadlines except the ones I set myself.
Appreciate the offer, though.
That's fair! Definitely pros and cons to any form of publishing. Do you already stuff out there to read?

I have plenty. The link to my overview page is in my signature.
And you just reminded me I need to update the banner for that page.

I dashed off a quick Doctor Who filk. I saw a Third Doctor meme on FB where he was complaining about Christmas music, inspiration hit, and boom.
It's not great by any means, but I had fun.

Saw this while googling for Star Trek news:
So, in my budding experience as a published author, something to watch out for. As with any other business or industry, you can expect scammers to be contacting you virtually all the time. I have had so many emails promising me loads of sales, I've had people offer to review my books if I pay them (one wanted $20, they could buy my book on Kindle for far less!), and the best one of all is how 'famous authors' have contacted me to explore the writing journey, only to try and sell me a service!
I seriously doubt that Suzzane Collins, who is worth some $90 million, will be personally contacting me to sell me a marketing scheme, and I have to wonder why the people pretending to be famous authors think such ploys will work.
I guess the message to any authors, writers, artists, or anyone who's putting out products and services out there is: be mindful. Scammers know no bounds. They'll try anything to cheat you out of cash.

Boy do I appreciate this Post! I have already written her in the (vain, I am sure) hope that she accepts commissions on her wonderful work! Thank you, Laura Cynthia Chambers!!!
