The $64,000.00 Question

1. How do we get published?

Identify what is the theme of your book is.

Research publishing houses that publish these themes.

Review the guidelines for submission. Pay attention to what they want or your manuscript will go to file 13. Allot of publishers want agent submissions. Some allow e-mail submissions. Read & research.  

2. Who do we pick?

Rather, who do they pick? You can only pick POD, Vanity publishers & e-publishers. They other houses pick their authors selectively.

3. Why do we elect to go with THAT publisher

One word, " Benefits". Do they have

Audio books?

E-Books?

Author Web-Pages?

A very good marketing program

A very good distribution company, like

Spring Arbor Distributors would be excellent.

 

Editing services, nobody is perfect.

 

Design services for book covers.

 

You're allowed to sell your own books because you still own the rights to it.

 

for more input about publishing, contact us at quark480@comcast.net we'd be pleased to help.
