If your writing is good, I'm sure the standard route will work fine

I'd be worried that someone unscrupulous would find it and steal it. But that's just because I'm paranoid.

As an aspiring author, I know the feeling.
But realistically, if you ever want to get published, it's best to do it the traditional way. (unfortunately

OH BABY.
I leave 'bookmarks' with my art on them, and a URL that leads to my deviantART main page.
I usually put in my journals that if anyone found me through a book let me know
no ones found me yet.
but I wish for it every day at 11:11
im not giving up.
I think you should do it.
;D
...unless maybe someone steals your story

My first thought- how long is your story if it's short enough to just leave in between pages?
Well, there are many ways to get your story recognised. If you want to have it published, you can go to Lulu.com. That's where I put my little book of poetry that I have. While it's there, you can find a way to have it added to Amazon and whatnot for ordering.
If you go to various publishers' websites, they usually have a section on what they are willing to publish or not. The only reason I have yet to try to publish something myself is because every place I try seems overrun by poetry. But ah well.
I enjoy leaving short, random, odd stories in various places for others to read. I usually don't leave more on it than an email adress and instructions to write something themselves to leave it somewhere else as well. Kinda a game.

I've left my scraps of stories in library books before (on accident) When I go back to retrieve them they're always gone. It makes me wonder.. Did they keep it or throw it out?

That's a neat idea. I never thought of that :] Way to be creative!

or you could try sending the story in to a publisher ST. Publishers get hundreds of submissions each day that they're paid to look at, unless your story is written on sheets of real gold they're probably not going to give it much thought. I don't mean to be discouraging, cause I'm sure you have a great shot at getting published, but even if you do follow through with your idea......SEND IT IN.

"I want a publisher to find it."
How I understand you, ST.

I left a secret in Naiomi And Eli's No Kiss List in my public library, I think its still there.

That's really sweet
(Just so you know, I work at a library and we check EVERY SINGLE BOOK/TAPE/CD or whatever that comes into the library for bookmarks, pieces of paper, etc. If you left your name on it we would be sure to put a block on your record so the next time you came in we would return it to you, or we'd phone you so you could come pick it up. So, once it's taken out by someone else and returned, if they haven't removed the story, the circulation staff will find it. Just a heads up.)

You guys crush hopes and dreams xD

The thing about library books is that everyone checks them out. Make sure you go to a library that a publisher could go to (they are rather busy) like near their homes.
If it's not fame you want, you should volunteer and learn how to put a new book in the system, and put your own book into the system after you've bound it and everything.

That's a cool idea. I like the idea of someone reading it. But I'd rather send it than risk it being stolen.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Fascinating plan, ST... Of course, that'd better be a copy of the original, or I'd be too worried about losing it. XD;
Also, what if someone finds it and decides to use it for themselves? o__o

ST, you might want to check out agentquery.com
It can help you find an agent who will get your stories out to publishers. Just make sure you know how to write a query letter first, and follow the agents' instructions!
Best of luck.<3

You probably made more than one librarian smile. I know I'd love to randomly find a poem in a book while working.

Only problem is a publisher may not find it and someone can steal your story.
Go tackle the publishers head on! We all believe in you!

I agree - my first thought was that someone might claim it as their own.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
That's a really sweet idea, but you might want to try and get a publisher to read it directly just to make sure.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
It's so cool, but You should send your story directly to the publisher.
Anyway, good luck!
