Publishing - the next step!

Second-Hand Tuxedo was self-published.  The publishing company that did that printing gave me a quote a couple of months ago. At the same time, I was shown a publisher that did co-publication.

With self-publication, I pay for all the set up and all the printing. All the marketing is on my back.  With co-publishing, I pay for the set-up and the printing of the books that I can sell. They pay for the books they print and sell and I get a royalty. 

I have an offer with five options: three are co-publications and two are self-publications. Hardcover, paperback, 100 copies, or 10,000 copies are just a few of the choices. 

I had saved some money to invest in a self-publication effort. So now I need to decide if I want to risk more than that on one of the co-publication offers.  There are options within and very slightly over what I have saved.

Pray for me as I make the decision.  And get ready! Coming soon, "The Man I Was"!
