Class: Alice Acheson - Publishing Choices: Print-on-Demand, Self-Publishing, Traditional Publisher

You owe it to yourself—and your pocketbook—to learn the advantages/pitfalls of each type of publication. No option is appropriate for all authors. Who pays for what? What services does each provide? With each option will your book be eligible to be reviewed and sold in bookstores? Are you likely to make as much money with each? To guide you in making this crucial decision, Acheson draws on decades of working with all three publishing choices. Alice Acheson is an independent publicist and consultant who has negotiated contracts and edited books. She is the former publicity director for Simon & Schuster and has more than 30 years’ experience promoting books.
