Welcome to the world of book publishing.  I have written a short story that I want to have published!  My story needs to go through a lot of steps before it gets to be an actual book.  Below you will find the steps involved in getting a book published, as well as an overview of the history of book publishing.  The process begins with the author, and ends when the story is bound into a book!  Use the links to visit the different areas of book publishing.
