— with our new Quick Quote
feature!
LOST IN
THE
SELF-PUBLISHING MAZE?
Don’t fall for
glitzy websites with claims to do all the work for you – and then have
them “own”
your book by
registering it in their name! Fortunately there is a better, safer way:
Our personal,
hands-on service
will provide individual attention that those automated Net Vanity sites,
who just
want you to “upload material” so their pre-programmed computers can do
the work, don’t
offer – and we’ll register the book in
your name.
We’ll produce a book just the way you
want it, with phone and email contact throughout the
process. With us, you’re not just
another number (one of those sites brags about having printed
over 100 million books,
while another, which boasts of owning most of the competition, has a
homepage introduction that’s
loaded with typos and grammatical glitches!), rather, we
grammatically fine-tune your book with
individual care. You don’t have to settle for cookie-cutter
choices, when you can be personally
involved in the production of your book – with a
company that’s been producing books
for more than 40 years, over 17 on the Internet…long
before those Net Vanity “publishers”
were active and making most of their money selling books
to their own authors. A popular
clothier used to advertise, “An educated consumer is our best
customer.” So, even – especially –
with producing your book, don’t fall for the glitziest sales
pitch until you’ve done sufficient
research. Your finished book will reflect that choice.
Our publishing services start with
basic info on how to Self Publish your own book (What
We
Provide),
then the right method to choose (Why NOT Choose
Internet Vanity?), and a cost
comparison between Self Publishing and
Print On Demand (Book
Biz). Our book production
starts and ends with your involvement,
which may include your cover idea developed into art.
Basic editing is built-in, with
advanced edit available if required, and any submitted art is
scanned, with illustrations
available if needed, then typesetting, formatting with text & cover
design, and internal proofreading
complete the pre-press work, as you receive 1st Galleys for
proofing, then Final Proofs prior
to printing. Also, shipping and free ISBN (registered in your
name) are included.
That last item is usually the main
difference between Net Vanity and genuine Self Publishing –
because ISBN registration
determines who owns your book. Most of the former register it in
their corporate names – we
register it in yours, so you own the book 100%. But beyond that,
our difference is the personal
attention your book gets. Another advertising claim by a coffee
shop chain about its handling of
your food was, “Untouched by human hand.” That could be the
slogan for most of those Net
Vanity sites.
For further info on Self
Publishing and our relatively unique, personal process, we suggest
perusing some of our illuminating
Newsletter editorials (Book
Biz), so you can make that
educated consumer’s decision.
Considering all the time and effort you’ve put into your
manuscript, isn’t it worth that
special attention to produce the book you want…rather than one
decided by a pre-programmed
computer?
Completing our
Quick Quote form will provide more details
about producing your specific book,
with no commitment involved. And don’t
hesitate to call or email us with any further questions!
