I wrote a book, now what do I do with it?
I finished my final draft of my book. After about 10 years of on and off writing and then a year of locking in re-writing after beta reads, I can say that I have reached the "it's done" phase. Problem is, I am not a writer, not in the traditional sense at least. I have never written anything, barely read anything honestly, but I have somehow come up with this 65,000 word novella and have no clue what to do with it. Not really interested in making a fortune off of it (although that would be nice). I just want people to experience the story I created. Do I contact publishers? Get an editor to go over it with a fine tooth comb? Publish it myself as is? I feel like if I do any more re-writing I will just make it worse looking for perfection.
Edit - Apparently 65k words is a novel, my mistake :)
