A Self-Publishing Q & A:

What is Self-Publishing?

Self-Publishing is a way to accomplish successful book publishing without having to wait for a literary agent and/or large publishing house to accept or reject you. Self-Publishing gives a new or seasoned author control over their money and publishing and marketing decisions regarding their book.

How am I in more control with Self-Publishing?

You are not sharing royalties with an agent or publishing house. You keep most all of the proceeds you make from your book minus what you invest for marketing and printing purposes. You decide where you want to place your book for sale, whether online, in retail bookstores or both.

How do I receive my money from book sales?

You are in total control of your money. You receive your money from book sales straight from the entity where you sold your book.

Is it expensive to Self-Publish?

No. It is very affordable to self-publish. You decide the amount of books you want to print and publish at any given time. You are in complete control of all orders. With Instant Publisher, you can order a minimum of 25 books. The larger your order, the less you generally pay per book.

Does it take a long time to Self-Publish a book?

No. Once your manuscript is complete and you are ready for book publishing; Simply upload it with Instant Publisher directly from your computer and place your order. You can receive your book order in as little as 7 – 10 days depending on the specifics of the order – all shipped right to your door.

Is Self-Publishing only for unknowns?

No. Many established authors continue to self-publish because they want to maintain control of their money and of their marketing decisions. Many unknowns do have an advantage with self-publishing, however, because they have an opportunity to get their book out in the market without having to wait for acceptance (or possible rejection) from an agent or large publishing house.

How do I know which book publishing company to use?

Instant Publisher is one of the nation's leading self-publishing / book publishing companies in the nation.

So you need to have made your decision within your mind and decide to stick to it all the way through.
