Editorial Reviews

Review

In today's marketplace, it's difficult to get your book into print, and even more difficult to figure out the optimal way to do so.

Subsidy/POD companies spend megabucks touting their services; 'true' self-publishing information is difficult to come by; literary agents are tricky to procure. There are literally dozens of different possible models for publishing, and the 'right' solution depends on an author's goals, time constraints, and monetary situation, as well as the specifics of the book and audience.

Cheryl Pickett's "Publishing Possibilities" offers a jargon-free walk through your options, taking into account different goals, styles, and resources. She also sorts through the vagaries and misperceptions of POD/fee-based companies, providing a clear picture of what authors get when they purchase these packages.

If you're mired in indecision and confusion over what your publishing options are, I highly recommend this book for a thorough understanding of the possibilities.
