How did you find a publisher? I have been looking for ages, submitted dozens of times, but no one wanted it. My collection was finished 5 years ago and it’s just been sitting there cause no press or publisher, big or small, wants it. Dunno how to deal with that.

just keep submitting tbh. theres no trick to it unless youre already well established enough to have an agent / have publishers reach out to you. a lot of it is just plain luck & being consistent. i would submit to presses & contests almost daily, mostly small ones cus im realistic, & got rejected every time until i didnt. wishing you luck friend!
