Yes exactly! Its a book with quotes and thoughts I wrote over years and is more philosophic. I don't find publishing houses in this Genre 👀 or maybe its only germany that doesnt have that much

Ah, okay. I'm not familiar with the German literary industry, so I feel useless on this one. But, if it's similar to the USA, then you generally don't submit directly to any publishing house. Rather, you hire a middleman (find a literary agent) to sell your book for you. There are some other ways, too.

I'm also thinking about to write the book also in english. How do I find those middlemans and how do I see that they are not scammer or not that good? Thanks for your help already! 🫶🏽🖤

You’re welcome! I have used a German cover designer on Fiverr by the handle GermanCreative who is a great contact. In fact, Fiverr is a good place to look for a translator, but UpWork or Reedsy may be better vetted.
