IntroductionThere are many forms of writing and writing styles. Some examples of types of writing include creative writing, technical writing, academic writing, and journalism. With each type of writing, there are specific styles that are used frequently within each discipline. In academic writing, the styles used are MLA, Chicago, Turabian, and APA. With each type of writing and its related style, there are different areas of publishing. There are book publications, magazine publications and newspaper publications. Many of the different writing styles can be published in a variety of locations and formats. There are academic journals, creative books, and technical style books. The publishing process varies slightly between different forms of publishing, but there are more similarities than differences. This is illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 below. Figure 1 shows the traditional publishing house process. The first big difference between these two publishing paths is the time difference between the modification and the subsequent making available for purchase. As Dr. Claxton said, “It's an extremely long process.” First, the writer must submit his or her work to an agent who will represent the author's interests in dealings with representatives of the publishing house. The agent and representatives will finalize the details of copyright and other similar details. Once this issue is resolved, the manuscript is sent to the editor, edited, and sent back to the author for revisions or approval of revisions made by the editor or ghostwriter.

Figure 3 Accepted but needs review. Contact between colleagues and editors Contact between colleagues and editors can be formal and friendly at the same time, as illustrated below in Figures 4 and 5. Among colleagues, holiday wishes or family welfare interests are mentioned in communications. While from professionals of non-self-publishing companies, there is no mention of holiday wishes or interests in family well-being. Unlike the communication and style in Figure 6, the style changes when dealing with self-publishing companies.
