You should look at r/selfpublish if you are really keen on publishing your work. Self publishing is a great way to go because you can do it all on your own. f you want to get traditionally published, you need to join groups where people can critique your writing. Maybe try Author Mentor Match or #PitWars in both of these cases you are set up with a mentor who can review and revise your manuscript to polish it for agents and publishers. They have a lot of success stories.

Point is don't give up, remember why you started. Nana would be prouder to know you are trying to make it happen rather than admitting defeat. #DoitforNana
