It's a saturated market. Your best bet would be to be a 'celeb' or minor member of the Royal family!!
Otherwise just write it.

You could look into self publishing on line. Some best sellers start off by word of mouth recommendation on the web.

Join a writing group. You will have support in developing your style, and peer criticism, which can be very helpful.

I agree with Dora join a Writing Group as they will be full of ideas on how to get your work out there.

I will PM you as I have personal experience of publishing.

I have written a story possibly for the age range 10-13. I would be interested in how to go about self-publishing. Do you have more details please Telly?
