I would be glad to help you in any way that I can, sharing what I have learned through this process. You might want to find an agent who would help you get the book into the hands of the right publisher. Lots of publishers do not accept submissions directly from authors, unless they're already published. You might want to pick up a book like The Writer's Handbook which lists agents and publishers. That is a good start. Also, in your pitch, I would write in the first person rather than third. In other words, "I have cerebral palsy." Just a tip that an agent passed on to me. I wish you the greatest success in getting your message of inspiration out there to the public. I am going to pass on your web site address to a teenager with cerebral palsy. I know she can benefit from your story. Also, please check out my blog, "Spiritually Speaking" by Rev. Carla Golden at http://carlagolden.blogs.com . Abundant blessings, Carla Golden Glenda,

I salute you for this dream, do it! ....one thing, in order to get the book PUBlished by November, no physical book publisher can do it so quick, it takes about two years to make a book. But you could do this: find a Internet publisher like iUniverse or any other self-publisher on the Net, you pay for the copies sold, that's all,it might cost around 1000 dollars to get the book online, and then people can read it for your birthday and word will spread online. to make a real paper book takes about two years in the USA, usually. I know, because i been there done that. but Internet is the new way to spread hope messages around the world, email me if you need more info. glad to help you get your project off the ground and into people's MINDS.....
