My A-Z of Writing Tips: An Amazingly Awesome Flowchart - How to Get Published

(Source)
I came across an AWESOME flowchart on Kate Hart's blog the other day, one I simply had to share with you. See, I'm doing the A-Z Challenge this month, and will be focusing on My A-Z of Writing Tips. And this flowchart says it so much better than I could!

It sets out the journey we writers go through, from asking ourselves whether our manuscript is finished, to deciding when we're ready to query, to the search for an agent, to going on submission to publishing houses. Follow through the questions, and hold your breath if you answer "No" to any of them, 'cause you might be sent back to get some more feedback, to get over yourself and go read, to revise again, or to write a new book!

Kate has kindly let me post the first part of the flowchart on Rach Writes..., so have a squiz, then click over to Kate's post and check out the whole thing.














How about you: Where are you at in your writing journey? Are you winging it, or have you set out to learn as much about the craft of writing as you can before you query?
