I have this book in my head that will
be easy to write (i think), but should i
go through the torture?

i know its hard, but what r the chances it will be published ?
should i print it myself & then go to independent small family owned bookstores for marketing ??

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE ABOUT THIS ???????

what about a movie script ? i have watched some real CRAP
movies (yes i love my NETFLIX), and know i can do a better job (i think).

how do these people get these movies made ? Iam talking about some serious crap..

just looking for help or advice or whatever. any comments will be appreciated !!!!!!

hey...with a book...it may be easiest to look around for local, or independent publishers, depending on what the book is about depends on who would be interested. there are way more independent publishers than you think. As with a screenplay or movie, if you make one yourself, as in producing, directing, and such, a very good way to get it seen and noticed, and possibly get money and it picked up by a larger company is to enter it into film festivals. Many independent films that are made in to hit movies start out at local and state film festivals... good luck with both =)

Write the book! Worry about publishing later. Writers write. Publishing is gravy.
