Ideas for a series of Novels (again)

[LvpvsRomanvs]

BUT (you might have guessed it's a big one), if you want to get published you must have a strong protagonist that your potential agent and pubisher will fall in love with at first sight - and I mean in the first few pages. If they do, they'll judge that the book buying public will do the same thing, and make their purchase of your book a profitable one. I wouldn't be swapping pov at the start of every chapter if you want to get published. If it's purely for your own entertainment then that's not such a problem, but if you'd like to see the book in print on the shelf, make some money, settle down to write full time and all that other fantasy stuff that writers dream about, you need one man that your series can follow. By all means cone up with all sorts of strong characters to put around him, but ignore that advice and I think you'll find it hard to place the book commercially.

Best of luck, and keep us posted on your progress.

Thanks a lot for the advice, Tony =)

I havn't thought of publihing it really. I've actually chosen to do it for a project. I've always wanted to write a book set in ancient times, it's been a BIG passion of mine for a considerable ammount of time. Believe it or not, but my mother told me that one of the first words in my vocabulary was "Romani"!!! (it must have caught on from my grand father) I've been hooked since a young age and this is the way that I want to show my appreciation for my interests. I've always wanted to recreate Rome in my own way (obviously as accurate as possible). But perhaps in the future I could try and modify the work and get it published as I do want to be a writer.

Grazie mille,

Lorenzo
