Thank you so much for your advice and for making yourself so available to help us. You're a real mensch. I already saved your contact info! I'll do my research and let you know :)

Also, I have one very important question. How do I get the copyright for my written work? Like if I self-publish or something, how would I ensure no one "steals" my stories or that I actually own the copyright? Do I have to register it somewhere? (I don't live in the Stats so I want to know how to register for copyright and have it apply to other countries?)

Thanks for the response. What would you recommend to me if I were to self-publish? Why would you choose self-publishing over getting published the old way?

Also, how do I find a professional editor and formatting helper?

Thank you so much for your responses.

How did you get published? What process did you go through?
