I am currently self-publishing my second book which is a vast improvement on my first. The title of the book is PRATER and it's subtitle is LEAVE THE FINANCIALS TO ME. I expect publication to be completed in about four weeks time. The anti-hero is a criminal but, without doubt, a very interesting character. I run a business but write in my spare time but because I find it so enjoyable I am now spending more time on writing. As I am sure everybody is aware, TV and films are the only routes to success hence the desperate need for an accomplished script writer- is anybody out there?? I have also determined to fictionalise the character and indeed, work has begun already on this ambitious project. Not yet 100% sure how to use this website but I'm getting there. All for now.

Congrats!
Thank you Eliza. May I ask what you do?
This is also one of my passions. Congratulations!
Your congratulations are most welcome. Writing being one of your passions, have you published yet? Perhaps you are a scriptwriter. Look forward to hearing from you. I'm from England-what about you?
Unfortunately I am not published yet, but still trying. I am from Boston, MA
Great good luck with it! Where are you publishing?
I haven't secured any publisher yet. I'm still working on finished manuscript.

There are tons of books that are successes without the help of film or tv (which usually comes well after the book is a bestseller.)
I know tons of great writers who have never had a movie made from one of their books. Believe me it is very lucrative all on it's own. Of course having the offer of a movie to be made from your novel would be thrilling. If it happens they will provide a screenwriter. I write for writings sake, it is my passion. Even if I'm never published, (though of course I would like to be), I will still feel fulfilled having done what makes me happy.
