Instruction manual
1
Find a publisher to print a book at his expense. Initially, you need to find a publisher who wants to release your book. Contacts and terms of their cooperation with new authors can easily be found on the Internet. It is not necessary to consider large publishers. It is even better, on the contrary, to choose an organization less well-known. Popular companies, as a rule, are less interested in collaborating with new talents - they have enough regular customers.
2
Send the manuscript to the indicated address. It is better to send the manuscript to several publishers at once. On average, a book can be considered 3 months (sometimes half a year). In this case, you must periodically call and ask about the decision of the editor.
3
Sign a contract with the publisher. In the contract, the author’s fee is mandatory. As a rule, it is a certain percentage of the cost of each book. Accordingly, the total amount of payments directly depends on the circulation. The circulation is determined by the publisher, but in case of demand, it can be increased.
4
Print the book at your own expense. In this case, everything is simpler - you need to find a publisher that can print the desired circulation at the best prices. By the way, for a certain percentage, such organizations are ready to help the novice author in the distribution of books.
5
Place the book on the appropriate Internet portals. Today, electronic libraries are distributed on the network, where a wide variety of works are available in the public domain. This is not a way to profit, but a method of achieving popularity. If people like your book, then there is sure to be a publisher who wants to print it, and you, in turn, will receive a fee due.
6
Contact a literary agent. This profession in our country is not currently widespread. However, it is a literary agent for a fee (fixed or percentage) that will help you find a publisher who wants to publish your book.
