They say that every person has a book inside
them. However, even those intrepid enough to
apply pen to paper (or fingertips to keys) are
faced with the following problem: How to get
published. Until recently, the answer was simple,
yet incredibly frustrating – the author would
send his or her manuscript to as many publishers,
agents, and editors as they could find, then
wait. And wait some more.
Technology and the Internet have changed everything.
Today, getting published is relatively easy
with the innovations of self-publishing and
print-on-demand. Plus, there is no wait, and
no rejection. Authors can now control the fate
of their work by using www.bookstandpublishing.com,
a division of CyberRead, Inc., to take the guesswork
out of the how to get published game. With self-publishing
from www.eBookstand.com, authors are 100% in
control of their works. For less than $1500,
an author can get a professionally designed
cover and 52 copies of their completed book
in about five weeks. With the help of a marketing
guide, “10 Step Quick Start Program”, authors
decide where and how to market their work, and
when they run out of printed copies to sell,
they can easily order more from www.eBookstand.com,
in batches as small as 25 copies. Other self-publishing
and print-on-demand services charge up to $15,000
for similar services.
With Bookstand Publishing, authors also receive
much higher royalties than they would from traditional
publishers – often as much as 30% of the book’s
cover price. Furthermore, self-publishing is
a great step for authors who’s books have a
niche market, helping them to get their books
into the hands of readers by marketing the book
to that target audience only, and thus allowing
the author to increase his or her sales.
The question is no longer, “how to get published,”
but “when to get published.” Now is the time
for authors to stop waiting and to produce their
contribution, allowing their true critics, the
mass readership, to identify, enjoy, and embrace
new voices. Click on www.bookstandpublishing.com
for the support you need to publish, market,
and sell your book today.
