The Secret to Publishing

Orange – Medium-Size Indie Publisher


Look for an indie publisher who has already built a name in your niche, offers bookstore distribution (presents your title 7-months in advance of your release to their distributor, prints a run between 5,000 and 10,000 books, and pushes 4000 to 8000 out to bookstores in proportion to your publicity plans for your publication month). There may be a small advance ($1500 - $5,000), but be prepared to spend this on professional PR.
