I’ve written six novels and two non-fiction works, one of which is available free over the Internet. I have never tried to get a work published. After years in the industry working for Macmillan, then Random House, I don’t need the hassle and don’t covet the money. The major publishing houses are run by liberals now and are used to funnel monies to leftist, often as a reward for services rendered tot he globalist agenda. If ever I decide to publish, I will self publish along the same lines that Richard Dolan used. ... But your second paragraph (citing three points) was spot on, for those wishing to start the climb.
