Hi
Come Join me for a discussion on publishing your work

there are many ways now available to do this
and as many questions to be answered

I will answer as many as my teachings will permit.

what are the different types of publishers available
what does a publisher look for
how should I contact a publisher
how should I prepare a manuscript
how should I submit a manuscript

are only a few of the questions that will be answered bring your to my room on

FYI trivia did you know?
a book is not called a book before it is published
It is a manuscript!

EDT is this:- Eastern Denver time?? These time Zones are not good for us here in the UK it is bad when GMT and BST are switched.
Could you if possible to write up your evening talk, in another Blog, after the event, for those of us that can't make that time slot. Thanks in advance,
Yours Ian.T

I wanted all our poets to submit a poem and a "comment" at a set time where they are in the world, or even a short three liner on how things were there, just to see how many pieces there could be in 24 hours of One day, can you imagine how many pieces there would be in one lot of 24 hours, it could be done on One Blog probably a world first lol
Have a lovely time out there what ever it is, Yours Ian.T

your room time then would be'

add five hours so it would be 2am your time

when we post a room it is posted in either eastern daylight time
or eastern standard time
depending on the time of the year it is. As we are an East Coastt(Neo is)
all post are either one of these

It would be hair raising a difficult if we were to try to accommodate every time zone there is

what I can do is is write a brief summary, but that would defeat the purpose of the room
however if anyone has a specific question regarding publishing please feel free o em me here and I will be happy to answer it.
however understanding that there is a time difference and the room is very late for you folks I will try to accommodate you as best I can

Thanks Ian I am in the eastern time zone of the united states
North Carolina is on the east coat of the U.S.
and it is now
10:31 A.M here

Hi Chrys

I have a similar problem in trying to co-ordinate shop times lol. Looks like the best you could do is move the time to 7:00 in the evening which would be kind of early for us Americans but maybe not intolerably late for those in Britain.................stan

Yhat would not support the eastern folks who probably are having dinner or finishing up at that time
the standard time has always been used

Hello to Chris and Lonnie

Happy to see you both still here and this would be a great class to take!
I am starting a class right around this time but I put it down in my calendar and I may just pop in to listen and read okay?

I hope all is going well for both of you and think about you often.
Love
Mona
