    Buy a copy of “Writer’s Market” to learn what publishing companies might accept an unsolicited manuscript of the genre of your book. Not to disillusion you, however, you are extremely unlikely to find a company willing to pay you for what you’ve written, particularly if it is of novella length, by which I am assuming that you mean “short”. It is very very difficult for unknown and previously unpublished writers to become published as publishers are interested only in making money. They will not invest in a manuscript unless they are quite certain that they will recoup their investment with profits. Unless your story is extremely well written and is unique and unusual, your fate almost certainly will be rejection. (Even those authors who prolifically write best sellers tell of the reams of rejections which they received before they finally reaped success.) A possibility for you if the desire to see your work published is your motivation is to self-publish; there are many companies which do that (I self-published two novels myself through Xlibris). They may have length requirements for the proposed manuscript, however; Xlibris does, I know. Furthermore, if you do choose to publish on your own, you will generally be responsible for all of the costs. There is a company which I’ve read mentioned frequently on Answers ( ) who apparently offer a service which does not require a fee; since I haven’t dealt with them, I am not sure of their ethics or reliability. Xlibris is legitimate — affiliated with Random House — and I have been very satisfied with my books. Whatever course you decide to pursue, best of luck!
