Find yourself a literary agent. A literary agent will handle all the work for you in reaching out to publishers and negotiating international rights. I did some googling and found this [http://www.writersdigest.com/editor-blogs/guide-to-literary-agents/literary-fiction-agents](http://www.writersdigest.com/editor-blogs/guide-to-literary-agents/literary-fiction-agents) but I'd suggest reaching out to some local writers groups in your area and see if you can find any connections through them or reading up on industry news through sources like [http://www.publishersweekly.com/](http://www.publishersweekly.com/) and see if you can find new agents that are accepting submissions.

Submit your work directly to publishing houses, specifically ones that have Spanish language divisions. This is probably not going to be as successful as going through an agent as editors tend to prefer to deal with authors who have agents.
