I did not realize you self published (which shows you have done a professional job). Had you considered lulu.com?<BR/><BR/>If my manuscript does not get any "bites" I am open to self-publishing. I feel okay about that because I think I have created a product people will enjoy (even if it turns out to only be a few people, lol). My biggest hang up is the little editing details--odd ball grammar rules, commas, the random incorrect word that is spelled right, but that Word, nor my eyes catch.<BR/><BR/>I like the idea of lulu because there are no up front costs. (Well, except for the final editing.) It sounds like perhaps you put some of your own money down, tho?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294580011480550687.post-84974814454937144202009-01-28T07:49:00.000-08:002009-01-28T07:49:00.000-08:00Amy - Thanks again for yet another extremely-helpf...Amy - Thanks again for yet another extremely-helpful post.
