How can I self publish my book?
I have already searched online, and requested a free book, but i was wondering if maybe you guys could help also? Or would it be cheaper to send it in to a publishing company near me? (indiana)
Congratulations on your accomplishment. You have achieved a goal for which so many strive: completion of your book. This is an achievement of which you should sincerely be very proud.
Your idea to possibly self-publish may be a logical one. It’s becoming more difficult, in this rough economic climate, to find a trade publisher willing to expend the money to pick up a work by a new or unknown author. If the desire is there, however, to see your work published, you do not have to sit and wait for a trade house to make this a reality.
There are many self-publishing options available to authors, from full-service subsidy publishers such as Dorrance Publishing to low-cost print-on-demand services, like RoseDog Books. These companies can help you take your raw manuscript through a pre-press process that gets it into shape for publication.
Whatever route you may choose, please do due diligence and research the company in which you are interested through the Better Business Bureau. This service, which is available at no cost and online, is valuable to be sure the company with which you are thinking of working is an active member willing to do what is necessary to satisfy its customers.

All the best in your publishing endeavors, whatever they may be.
