Ensuring a Manuscript is Ready to Be Published - podcast

Authors often struggle with knowing when their manuscript is ready to be sent to an agent or publisher. Cyndi Hughes, president of Cynthia Hughes Literary Consulting, gives tips on ensuring your manuscript is ready to be published. She stresses the need for feedback. If you are the only one who has ever read your manuscript, then it's not ready. Use beta readers, such as a writer's group, who can give you feedback. You can also receive feedback by working with an editor who specializes in substantive editing. Once you have completed this necessary step, you may be ready to send your manuscript to a publisher or agent.
