| That's true, but most publishing houses request an estimated wordcount for each manuscript. | |

| ow, ya. I also want to know there Word Count Formula for any realy oober advised people you would consider willing to give a newbie a fair shot. I know some have there own formula of so many charectors equals a word. As alos no one I have found will publish a newbie writer book over 100,000 words.
Courier New, Size 12 double spaced if I recall correctly is a majority but not all preferd Publishing Houses required for drafts intended for review.
Self Publishing is not feasible for a poor writer as I am also looking at the Google mess where they are hooking up the subscribers to there idea of a search engine to include the entire inventory of a handfull of Major Univeristy and more Libraries. Not good as google profits by giving access to all sorts of books there entire collection and Authors get ( Bleep )
I'll forgive Shin because he must be thinking of the guys who publish Play Boy and Hustler not books with words. :lol:

You originally wrote 'thesable.' Since it's not a word, the closest correct thing for it to be would be two words smushed together: the sable... thesable... it's easy to see that way.
Theasable isn't a word either. Neither is thesible or any variation of that pronunciation. It's the lisp of English speakers who incorrectly pronounce feasible.
You work at a Krispy Kreme? I love Krispy Kreme. | |
