Have you dreamed of seeing your book on the shelves of your local bookstore? In this video, I give an overview of how the book publishing industry works and walk you through the steps involved in getting a book published with one of the five major publishers. You'll learn how to write query letters, find a literary agent, and finally land a book deal.

The “Big Five” are Penguin Random House, Macmillan, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster and Hachette. Simon & Schuster is to be taken over by Penguin Random House.
