It is just an e-book press. They do not expect their writers to pay anything, and the writers earn royalties (just no advance).<BR/><BR/>But yes, I highly discourage anybody publishing their novels with companies that expect the writer to pay some money in. Money ALWAYS flows toward the writer. :)Alexa Gravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250741051279927895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583759.post-1123542824258678382005-08-08T18:13:00.000-05:002005-08-08T18:13:00.000-05:00You should also take this time to warn anyone from...You should also take this time to warn anyone from vanity presses.Chunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15360401378058073278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583759.post-1123534025725960762005-08-08T15:47:00.000-05:002005-08-08T15:47:00.000-05:00I thank you for your recommendation Steph, and I h...I thank you for your recommendation Steph, and I have heard of that particular press, but I prefer to go the more traditional route (long and hard as it may be). One of the ways I see it is that I can't read e-books to begin with, I wouldn't want my novel to be an e-book. I need to hold a book in my hands (not printed out from my printer). Not to mention when I read fiction on the comp, it's always for critiquing, so that's the mode I shift into.<BR/><BR/>I want that traditional publication with an advance (I know, I know, those advances aren't that much)! Long hard road ahead of me...Alexa Gravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250741051279927895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583759.post-1123528241031352932005-08-08T14:10:00.000-05:002005-08-08T14:10:00.000-05:00Have you thought of trying to publish on some of t...Have you thought of trying to publish on some of the ebook sites the Cerridwen Press? I have not been brave enough to try them myself but several of the ladies I have sent there have with immediate success.Stephalupogushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730748761242507108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583759.post-1122681493894996782005-07-29T18:58:00.000-05:002005-07-29T18:58:00.000-05:00Get to work! ~whip whip~ Heeyah!Get to work! ~whip whip~ Heeyah!Chunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15360401378058073278noreply@blogger.com
