I have a dilemma about trying to publish my novel. I am writing a novel and I am not sure what to do with (where I want to publish it) after I finish it. Do I want to submit it to a publishing company like Cemetery Dance or Journal Stone. (I heard about the annual writing contest that Journal Stone runs each year. I think you get a $2,000 advance publishing contest. I did not make the deadline this year but I would like to try to enter the contest next year.)
This is the very first novel I have ever tried to write. I have no idea what to do. Or should I submit my novel to an e-book publishing places like Smash Words.com? Should I try to go the e-book route at all? There are publishing companies like Lazy Day publishing and Solstice Publishing. I would like to try going the e-publishing route first, because I want to get feedback and critique for my work. If I go the e-publishing route, will the rights to my novel go to me or the publishing company? I would like to wait until next year to try to enter the Journal Stone contest. If you have any ideas please help me.
