eBook Publishing
More and more authors are turning to
ePublishing as an alternative to traditional publishing. Here are some reasons
why:
- No Rejection: eBook publishers are
much less choosy about which manuscripts they accept, and many accept all that
are submitted.
- Time: It can take years of
searching for a publisher who wants to take on your book, if you can find one
at all. With self-publishing, you could wait months or even years before you
have the printed copies of your book. With ePublishing, that time can be cut
down to weeks or days.
- Price: Self-publishing can cost
thousands of dollars, and authors must pay for each copy of their book that is
printed. With eBooks, you usually pay one fee for the ePublishing service.
eBooks never have to be printed.
- Personal Interaction: Even if only
through email, authors can communicate directly with the person that will be
handling their manuscript. You can ask questions about any part of the process
and get feedback on your book.
- Technology: Lots of authors are
excited about being part of the new technology of eBooks. Anybody who has an
eBook now is getting in on the ground floor of an emerging technology, and
will be part of all the upcoming advancements.
- Future Options: Depending on the
ePublisher, authors will still have the option to publish their work in paper,
sell their eBooks at multiple eBook stores, and even continue to submit their
manuscript to traditional publishers while it's selling as an eBook. (This can
also help authors establish a sales record to show to publishers.)
- Do it yourself!: You can even do the
work of "ebooking" your manuscript yourself. This might or might not save you
money, depending on whether you need to buy any software for your purposes.
ePublishers have more expertise in the process of creating eBooks, but you can
take it on as a creative project and be proud of what you've accomplished in
the end.
