Title: Thesis on CH- any possibilities for publication?
Post by dr_amy on Oct 10^th, 2013 at 9:51am

Hi all,

I researched and wrote a 15,000 word thesis examining theories of ch and its management for my final year at university and I would love to have it published. Does anyone know how I might go about doing this, or if its even possible?

If anyone would like to read it just drop me a pm with your email :)

Regards,
Amy

1. Scan the market to see what your competition is before starting to market or take any action.

2. Your academic advisor, or other faculty, may be able to offer some real world advice on the process of selling a book to a publisher.

3. Consider asking somone who knows this area of medicine to read it and give some honest feedback on how your book compares with the market.

Amy - good to see that you've turned this into an interest that goes beyond the original project. I'm sure, from having read it, that it will be of interest to many with CH.

Talk to your lecturers (even if you are no longer at university) about what options they see for publishing the information. It could possibly be re-written as a paper for one of the scientific journals (your lecturers will be able to suggest suitable ones and they might like to help too as they'd get their name on the paper which is important for accademic ranking).

Another option is a book, which could be an ebook or printed. Talk to people in the area who may have written books in similar areas, publishers, etc.

Or maybe set up a website of your own and publish it there, although I'd explore the other options first.

Hi Dr. Amy, welcome aboard!

I sent a link to your post to Cindy Reynolds, one of our premier CH advocates. I'm hoping you will hear something from her in the very near future. I will PM you my email also. Thank you for doing the work.
