Le Dernier Mot

There may be something wrong with the way you handled things. Do you have an agent? Well, GET ONE. A lot of publishing companys like seeing agented material. And when you write your query letter to get an agent, PLEASE do not put "My friends loved the book". If you don't know what a query letter is, you need to do some research! Or maybe if you did everything right, maybe that publishing company isn't representing what you write. Did you submit a romance book to a publishing company that publishes horror? You need to look into these things. From what I see here, you seem very confused. RESEARCH on the publishing industry if you really want to be published.
