About the Book

You want to make a publisher say yes? First, understand why they say no; then apply that knowledge to your book. Nicola Morgan - the Crabbit Old Bat of the renowned blog, Help! I Need a Publisher! - has made publishers say yes around ninety times. Now she reveals the workings of publishers' minds and whips your work into shape with humour, honesty, grumpiness and chocolate. 'A punchy and practical guide - fluent and informative.' Mark Le Fanu, General Secretary, Society of Authors. 'The tutor I wish I'd had when I was starting out. Nicola Morgan is made of crabbit - but she is also made of awesome.'Joanne Harris, author of Chocolat.

Review :
Author and publisher, Scott Pack: “I receive a lot of emails from authors asking for guidance on how to take the next steps to publication. In future I will just point them in the direction of this book.” Popular blogger, Bookwitch: “She writes the way I want to. She writes great children’s novels, but it’s Nicola’s non-fiction – and her shoes – that I’m willing to kill for. [...] There is not a thing missing.” Karen Ball, author, after a Foyle’s event: “Nicola's presentation was faultless. The staff at Foyles were clearly in love with their visiting author [...] I've never seen a flurry of publication pleasure so nicely ordered! It’s a must-have book for aspiring writers [and] authors who already know their trade.” MA Creative Writing course leader, David Belbin: “Accessible, intelligent and up to date. [...] Should be on the reading list of every creative writing course in the country.” Editor of The New Writer, Merric Davidson: “At last! The book of the blog - and very probably the book of the century (so far) for all aspiring writer [...] the one book you should have by your side as you’re plotting and planning your career as a published writer. It is, without doubt, one of the most generous how to books you will come across and it’s written in a most approachable, informative style by the self-styled Crabbit Old Bat. [...] Invaluable advice, delivered with honesty and no little humour.” Best-selling author, Joanne Harris: “…the tutor I wish I’d had. Nicola Morgan is made of crabbit – but she is also made of awesome.” “Write to be Published aims to show you why publishers and agents say No. Before I was published, I’d had vast experience of this small but infuriating word: I don’t want you to take as long as I did and WTBP is my solution. My aim is to unlock the mysteries, to share with you what I wish I’d known so much earlier. And to say I’m thrilled with the reception this book has had is an understatement!” Nicola Morgan
