Authors and Book People... I've decided I want to take my popular graphic novel and webcomic series "The Dreamland Chronicles" and turn it into a prose novel. I've written the first 20 something pages (or 7,000 words) and I'm liking it. 1/4

I know I will need a good editor to help me find my voice for prose, but the series had 34 million readers and was translated into 7 languages. We had toys and kids dressing up as the characters. 2/4

Thanks Marv. I'm about 10,000 words in and the characters and world feel SO much more fleshed out already. I have so much planned. I just don't want to self publish again.

Should I speak to a literary agent? Should I go to my existing publisher (Hay House)? Should I finish the book first? Or send out a sample? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

I read this when it was still updating! I don’t have much experience, but I’ve been told that literary agents prefer working with completed drafts. Since you have a publisher, you can likely talk to them before the book is finished and see if they want to carry forward with it.
