Aspiring Authors

Review sent under seperate e-mail. But that deals with what you have written or improving it.

Many major groups of illnesses have various support groups.

My suggestion would be to search for/join/become involved with one of them and run your help piece by them and read what they have written.

The other trick might be to find someone in the mental health field that has the credientials and experience to view the recommendations you make... and get feedback from them.

As far as markets for this sort or writing, you might be able to edit it into the sort of thing that someone like Readers Digest Publishes. Read a few Readers Digest self-help type piece see it might fit the sort of thing they print. There may be newsletters from associations/groups dealing with certain types of mental illness that also may be on the look out for this sort of thing. (internet search maybe?)

(Two of my favorite magaizines are Readers Digest and National Goegraphic).

Good luck!
