As a writer, I can tell you that if you don't even know what's going to be in the book yet, it's much too early to be worrying about a publisher. They will want a complete outline and several completed chapters, as well as whatever credentials you may have for writing a book on ferrets (think of this as answering "why would anyone buy a book written by you?"). Without being able to answer that question, it will be impossible to get anyone to pay you for the material. What credentials *do* you have? If you're talking about a fictional book, you will have to complete the entire book and find an agent who thinks it's worth printing. The agent will attempt to find a publisher. As far as finding any more information on publishing, I suggest you visit your library - there are tons of books on the subject. Joanne [Posted in FML issue 3471]
