After suffering using useless textbooks for too long, I started writing my own and want to look at getting it published. It isn't one of the run of the mill, general conversation English books. It is technical and scientific English for a specific although relatively small, market.

Anyone know how to go about getting it published in Korea legally? What issues do I have to look at re visa, payments etc

Connections, I'd hazard a guess. Or dumb luck.

I've been wondering what the best way is to approach an editor (for example someone at Hollym) about getting a non-fiction book published in Korea. Has anyone done so, and if so did you use a literary agent?
