Vanity publishers can cost thousands, but wait: You do not have to pay to publish your work.
I can publish my own books without spending a penny, unless I choose to purchase special services such as proofreading or cover art. My publisher provides cover templates that I can use to easily make my own covers, and they even provide some clip art if I don't have an image of my own that I want to use.
My books get listed on Amazon, and I can choose whether to offer them on Kindle. I set the price of each book, so I control how much money I make on each sale.
Instead of waiting months or even years to hear from traditional publishers, and gettinga "no" inmost cases, I can see my books in print as soon as they are ready for my readers.
I'm talking about Create Space.
Try it, you'll like it!
