did you ever publish something?

[Edrof]

Just about to start looking for a publishing avenue for my first novel. Finished it as part of the National (well, International) Novel Writing Month last November and am about to finish the second draft. 120,000 words at the moment, so may be a little long; the genre is commercial fiction / adventure.

NaNoWriMo?

The typical first fiction novel is about 70,000, I think. What's commercial fiction? Fiction in the world of commerce?

@ Edrof: Well
hortensia: No, I did not want to leave that impression but anyways it is a fair chance and of course an opportunity for those who are newly to the game and did not want to go for big deals, as some of us may just write for a specialized audience.

It was a genuine question, buddy.

Yes I guess so! And I agree with it making sense when you have a specialized audience. In any case, wishing all of you guys the best of good luck with your writing

Have written quite a few articles which have been published in trade magazines but due to what I do for a living rather than a desire to write.
