Hi, I have being working on a book for a year now and would love to get it publish; however, I don't know how to go about it. It is a love story about a woman in Nova Scota. I would appreciate your assistance. One company was me to self publish it. They are asking $700.00 US which is $1000.00Canadian. I am disable and don't have that kind of money. There must ba another way? You can reach me at [email protected] Donald quote: ORIGINAL: cariad quote: "Publish American can be a very strict company to use but as long as Y/you are serious about what Y/you write they will take a look at it."

I am a published erotica author myself, and thought I would pop in here just to give a heads up... Any company asking you to pay to publish your work is highly suspect. There are people that do self-publishing, although unless you're independently wealthy (remember, you'll have to market that book too!) I would not recommend it. There is a site I go to regularly that posts calls for submissions for erotica authors. Some of the publishers accept stories of the bdsm/lifestyle nature (actually many of them do). Go to www.erotica-readers.com It's a free service and it's what got me started 'in print' :) Hope it helps, and good luck to you both! Regards, Chelle

I was just speaking with someone who told me about this self publishing company http://www.trafford.com/ . He said a friend of his self published her work there (twice), and was just recently picked up by Llewellyn. Trafford actually does the marketing for you (amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc). Regarding the cost, I believe he said it is about $1000 U.S. While this is a lot of money, I don't think it is too much to invest in something one believes in. It may require talking to people, working a little harder, cutting some corners, and scrimping/saving a little more, but in the end it depends on how important it is, to the individual, to get out there.
