Local Teen Author Takes the Terror Out of Getting Published | Arts & Culture

Many years ago, the publishing process was so limited that only a spare few voices were heard in the world of literature.

What you saw on bookshelves was what companies decided was good enough for the media, though there were many other obscure authors whose work was just as fabulous.

In today's market, however, there are hundreds of self-publishing companies to choose from. It's become quite simple to look up companies willing to publish whatever you have written, and more often than not it's cheap to get your work out in the world.
