You're going against one of the tenants of the new religion so it is to be expected. Doubly so given how subverted the publishing industry is. You will probably have to self-publish and/or network with other dissident writers and publishing houses. Think Zero HP Lovecraft, Passage Press, and the like.
This is a long and difficult path but that's the dissident's lot. Definitely get that twitter game on point! Network network network
I agree but I can't even get to publishing, I either have to self edit or find a bunch of beta readers to help. Not so excited about trying to self edit, the Epistolary style of my book makes it a fucking nightmare to edit.
The self publishing bit I'm not so concerned about, it is finding a willing and professional editor who won't waste my time and money.
After that I need to find a decent artist to design a cover, which I probably should have done months ago. Between the editor and cover this is going to get expensive quickly.

Styxxhexenhammer has self published many books to success. I think Amazon of all places has the tools to make this possible but I might be wrong.
Don't let it discourage you, king
