Self Publishing with Print on Demand

Lulu self-publishing reuqires no set-up fees and has no minimum order. Lulu prints and ships each book as it’s bought. The buyer pays the cost — not you. Lulu only makes money if you do. You retain all rights to your work. You decide on design and layout. You set the price and royalties. Lulu’s not the publisher — you are.

Lulu lets you sell your work through Amazon, Borders, Barnes and Noble — and on Lulu itself. Lulu handles all transactions, order tracking and shipping.

Print on demand (POD) is a method of producing books or other media (such as CDs and DVDs) one at a time. With print on demand, a printer produces hard copies of a book from a digital file. That way, the book is only printed when someone buys it. With Lulu, an author gives us a digital file of the book and we create a print-ready version of the file. When a customer buys that book from Lulu, our printer prints that copy (or copies) and ships it within days.

Publish and sell worldwide a book, CD, DVD, image or calendar — and order it within minutes. You keep control … of the rights, the design, the price and 80% of the profits.

Another self-publishing choice is BookSurge — owned by Amazon.
