Crowley asked A.G. Howard:

How easy or hard was it for you to get you books published? Just tips for me, I really want to be a novel writer when I'm older, and I heard that its hard and expensive.

A.G. Howard Hi! Yes, it can be hard if you go the traditional route and get an agent, but it should never be expensive. Legitimate agents don't charge you a dime. They only get paid (with a reasonable commission) if they sell your book to a publisher. And believe me, the best agents totally earn that commission with everything they do for their authors.

Indie publishing might be more expensive. I have little experience there, so you would need to research it.

I do have some tips on how to get published on my website here: http://anita-authoraghoward.blogspot....

My own personal journey + timeline is included on that page.

Good luck in your writing / publishing endeavors!

I have a blog where I post reviews, and I was wondering where I would go to contact the publishers directly to try my luck at requesting an ARC for RoseBlood when the time comes? PS: can't wait for the release!! <3

Some of the lyrics in the song "Hypnotic" by Zella Day really remind me of Alyssa x Morpheus. Have you heard it? Oh, and I can't wait for RoseBlood!!
