There is far more to being an author than having your name on a book cover, making a few bucks, or preserving knowledge. Authors are fortunate to connect, to touch people’s lives all around the world through their work. This book is your roadmap for getting published and cementing your legacy.

“The Bottoms” succeeded to “Hell Row.” Hell Row was a block of thatched, bulging cottages that stood by the brook-side on Greenhill Lane. There lived the colliers who worked in the little gin-pits two fields away. The brook ran under the alder-trees, scarcely soiled by these small mines, whose coal was drawn to the surface by donkeys that plodded wearily in a circle round a gin.
