"Getting
published is impossible without connections."
The
Myth About Connections
Have
you ever felt like success is only for the “insiders”? I get it—it’s easy to
believe that getting published is all about who you know. But here’s the truth:
it’s about what you create.
I’ve
met authors who started with zero connections. They didn’t have agents on speed
dial or publishers waiting for their call. What they did have was determination.
They wrote, revised, and kept submitting until someone noticed. And now, with
AI, all those steps are way easier.
And
guess what? In today’s world, you don’t even need permission to get your work
out there. Self-publishing and hybrid publishing has opened doors for countless
writers to share their stories with the world, no gatekeepers
required.
Connections
might help, but they aren’t the key. The key is your commitment to your craft,
your willingness to put your work out there, and your persistence. These (and
your willingness to give AI a chance) is how you get published in
2025.
