That's how you get your foot in the door, by spending genuine time writing the best possible stories before you start to worry about anything else. When you've written the best possible story you can write, and done that about a dozen times. The very best possible stories. Then you can start sending them out to literary magazines and see if you find any interest. Ronnie,

To tell you the truth, I was shocked when I pulled up this site and saw you had! My stories are many and all true. I don't know which angle to pursue as far as marketing them to begin building a reader fan base, so to speak. I keep having the idea of steering towards the christian segment of readers. This is only because of my own personal faith. I'm not much of a church goer but my faith in God goes far beyond believing. I KNOW He's real. in To be considered a "christian" seems to be primarily based on simple acceptance of the established guidelines set forth by man and all his "knowledge. Repeat after me the mantra and presto, welcome to the club. For me it is an entirely different story. He, the old Man, has stepped in and interceded in my life MANY times and made it quite clear, in his own way, that He and He alone got me out of this latest predicament. In other words I want to write my stories with a religious undertone. Non denominational. God doesn't have a denomination. Mankind screwed that up a long time ago. I live in the Greensboro, N.C. area and travel to Asheville often. I have a meeting with a professional muse who lives there next weekend. I'm so ignorant I didn't even know what the word means when I first contacted her. All my folks, 3 generations back are from those storied mountains. Well, I guess I'll close with a question. Can you give me any insight as to what possible approaches have the best potential to get my foot in the door? Thanks, Ronnie Dear sir, Thank you for responding.

You should only write them if you honestly want to tell the stories, because they are not likely to sell widely. Anything is possible, but money is not a good reason to tell those stories. You write short stories for love, not for money. If you happen to make some money off of them, it would be a nice (but unexpected) bonus. Hi Ronnie,

My first one would be a book comprised of short stories about my adventures while hitchiking to California in 1978. I left Little Washington, North Carolina on a tuesday morning and arrived in Huntington beach, California on the following sunday. I got a job the next day and lived there 12 years. I slept on the back porch of an elementary school across the street from where I worked for 2 weeks until I got my first paycheck and the rest is history. A 20 year old blonde haired, blue eyed country boy in southern California. YES, I have some stories to tell! My question is how do I get them published and make money at it as well?
