Hi there fellow indie-published people. Here is the story of why I decided to self-publish my novel, Cyberdrome, if you care to hear it. After nearly a decade...
... Yep. all fixed now. And I toned down my cynicism after seeing the non- US Amazons like .uk kept working normally throughout. That makes it look more like...

... Emily, Just as a comparison, I am selling my book for $16.95 (which, for a 6'x9' paperback, is reasonable (only $1.00 higher than others at amazon)). I...
... 15% is pretty good. Of course there are a lot of options. I decided to go small press in the end. At which point there are far more presses, but...
There are alternatives in between the total self-publishing route and trying to publish with places like Random House or Tor. Many small-press publishers (not...
Hi Nan, The list looks great! Can you add my book to it??? "City of Lights: The Trials and Triumphs of Ilyse Charpentier." The ISBN is 0595443508. Thanks...

According to an email I got early this morning, everything is at peace with iUniverse and Amazon. It was, according to iUniverse, just a glitch, and nothing...
Hi Nan, Can you also add my book? Woman Redeemed by Christine Blake ISBN 978- 1-4327-1583-0 Thanks, Chris ... Lights: The Trials and Triumphs of Ilyse...
Hi Nan, Can you include my book in the list? Jen-Zen and the One Shoe Diaries is on Amazon. I thought I was included, but that must have been another list. ...
... Joe, It's not that I felt slighted, just very, very surprised. There are so MANY small-press publishers "out there" who accept a myriad of genres. Some...
... I can't speak for his press but I can speak for the small presses I chose. One was ebook-only but commonly sells over 100O copies in the first 2 years....

... Oh, I'm not offended at all. I respect your opinion, and you have more experience with this than I do. It's just that we're caught between a rock and a...
