Title: Looking for some reviewers
Post by: Manic Velocity on April 25, 2010, 11:15:07 pm

I've made a long-term goal, however small, to publish a book.  I hope to publish a compilation of my short stories, expanding the universe of The Matrix.  After kicking around countless concepts in my head over the last five or six years, I've settled on one that will be the opening story of the book.  After a couple weeks I've completed a rough draft of the first chapter.

If anyone would care to take a read and give me any feedback, I would be extremely grateful.  If you're interested, reply here and I will PM you the draft.

Thank you.

Would you have to get WB's permission to publish it since it is Matrix related?

I'm not exactly sure, though it is something I've considered.  My step-mother is a lawyer, and she and I will be investigating my options.  

Thanks for the support guys.  :)  Check your PM inboxes soon.

Would love to read it...

Your best bet is to try and find a publishing agent.  Definatley look for one in the genre, who has represented a smaller group of individuals.  I'd say your easiest way in is through a smaller publisher, though you are definatley going to have some issues if you base it directly on the Matrix.
