Depends what you write or what you are interested in... Many publication take on interns or you could freelance? Drop me a line I'm in the publishing business drop me a line with samples of your work and possibly we may take you onboard?

Cheers!

Hi Q_View,

Well I'm working now in an IT Company and I'm thinking of leaving them because I did not get a good offer from them now.

Well, .. I don't have certificates until now, but I'm giving the A+ new different certificates soon Inshullah. MCSE is is near because I've finished 75% of it and i need a little more time to clear it.

I have no problem in doing the following:

Installation of windows 2003, configure it as domain controller and setting up exchange servers too. Even if you don't have a static IP for creating VPNs, I got the solution for that. Setting up VPN using Windows 2003 server built-in service RSSA, Creating VPN using MS ISA Server too. Installation and Configuration of Norotn Anti Virus Corporate 10.0.3 in a client server environment. Installation and configuration of different wireless routers, Linksys, D-Link, 3Com, NetGear.

Sorry, but i guess that i have talked alot.

Nice to meet you Q_View

Natasha King Edshel seems to have some useful information, that may actually get you closer to your goal of publishing. My suggestion was more of a method to get you some exposure to your ideas and writings.

As King said, we are all here to help.

King, 1st thing, Hala :) Ou Nice to meet you as well (well I guess online anyway). Are you currently working in Qatar as a Network Support Engineer? Do you have any certifications in Networking?

Cheers

That is true. You can also have a personal website and post some of your work there. You can also try sending some of your written work to the newspapers and see if they can publish some of them.

My friend works as a web designer and he is always getting some printed stuff for his work place. I will ask him and see if printing a book is possible and what can be the procedures for this issue. Don't worry because we are here to help, there are a lot of good writers here but they don't get the right chance to share their opinions and experience with other people.

with Regards

Meanwhile, if you'd like you can create a 'Blog', and feature some of your writings (only samples or portions) to get some exposure.

Looking forward to seeing some of your material.
