You finished that wonderful manuscript, the story you've been working relentlessly on for months. Before wrapping it up with a cover letter and submission package, be sure it's really ready to be submitted to editors. Is it free from spelling and grammar errors? Is the format correct? Does it follow the Writer Guidelines? Is the piece age-appropriate for your audience?
As editor of My Light Magazine, I've come across promising manuscripts, yet had to reject them based on the above criteria. Don't let all that hard work go to waste. Be sure it's ready to meet an editor and an editor's expectations.
Happy Writing!
