Top 10 Questions to Ask About POD Publishing!
POD
publishing does not take the place of its proud
elder brother “Traditional Publishing.
Technology has advanced in the
publishing world. I love it! I have been greatly
helped to realize my publishing dreams.
In my opinion, POD publishing
does not take the place of its proud elder brother
“Traditional Publishing.” As with
anything, there are pros and cons of each method.
With that said, I won’t
attempt to convince you whether POD publishing
is a good choice for you. There are lots of
good reports out there on that subject. Back
in 2002 when I chose to self-publish my first
book, I compiled a report comparing the top
3 companies. It helped me make my decision.
I have revised that report for you and offer
it fr~ee at the end of this article. If you
have decided to publish POD, here are ten top
things to consider and compare.
1. Cover?
Covers sell books! Of course it’s not
the only selling aspect of your book but it
is one of the most important. One shot at a
good first impression to capture the interest
of your potential reader is all you get.
Author’s Note:
Look at their covers in on-line bookstores –
back in 2002 I liked what several companies
offered but their existing author book covers
looked like crayon drawings. Most companies
have since improved but I still think it’s
one of the main points to consider. You are
looking for bookstore quality or trade quality.
2.
Contract? – Most Publish-On-Demand
or print when ordered companies are not considered
publishing houses but publishing service companies.
Therefore, you should expect a non-exclusive
contract period.

Do
I have to write my book all by myself?
To
a naturally gifted writer the question above
may seem like an odd question. But to the rest
of us who have to develop our craft - it's the
question we asked- just starting to write.
The
truth is it's same as in other fields, you should
aim to use your skills at the highest possible
level. Then you share, delegate or simply ask
for help with the rest. Do your research and
reading time apart from your writing sessions.
You may be able to ask your spouse, a teen-aged
son or daughter, a friend to help with your
research. Know when to let go of your chapters
and book. Don’t self-edit and pick your
book apart word by word. Again, learn to use
your skills at the highest level possible.
Some
of the mechanical tasks of proofreading ask
a family member, part-time employee or again
a friend to help. After you have done the best
job you can with your manuscript, don't be afraid
to pass it to a professional. Learn to delegate
faster and faster.
