"...welcome to publishauthors now..." started the goblin who wouldn't admit his age either, saying "...no you've come to the right place then, only that the real authors are still incarcerated deep below deck here, where legend has it that they were once humans and then something changed them drastically, and from that moment onwards all sorts of strange thoughts and weird imaginings possessed them to write without motive or letup...", and with that the goblin looked across at McPaul98, and then confided "...if you're asking me how to write then I feel that you're asking the wrong question, no the real question is do you know what you are letting yourself in for if this writing ever becomes something habitual within you now, for it's not all that fame and fortune that one sees on the outside, ah no, inside it's more like 24/7 where all that you do does you in return, simply you won't be able escape from yourself I mean, so welcome to the madness of writing..."

The one thing they won't like is using a small "i" instead of "I". Your first contact with an editor/publisher is very important. Make sure your English is proper. They will pre-judge your work based on how you correspond with them.
