How To Go About Getting a Story Published
Any writer will tell you how thrilling it is to see your name on a byline with your first published piece. They’ll also usually tell you it took quite a while to get that big thrill. Writers are not known for their marketing skills. You may be a terrific writer, but if you don’t market your skills, it’s pretty slow going. Once you know how to go about getting a story published, it can happen fast! If you’re just starting out in your writing career, here are some pointers on the fast track to getting published. You finished your story. You revised and nitpicked until it screams perfection. After a final proofreading, you submitted your work to that well known national magazine. You’re prepared to wait a few months for a reply.
What’s wrong with this scenario? Although you followed the standard protocol, your chances of getting a story published in this magazine are probably not good. Don’t get me wrong, this does not necessarily reflect on the quality of your work. It could be that the editor is simply not interested in your topic at this time.
