Frequently Asked Questions
What is Self-Publishing?
Self-publishing is a contemporary approach to bringing your book to the world. Unlike traditional publishing, where authors typically go through a lengthy process involving literary agents, publishing houses, and strict selection criteria, self-publishing empowers authors to take control of their work's entire journey.
In self-publishing, you retain full creative authority, from concept to cover design. With the advent of print-on-demand services offered by companies like Amazon and IngramSpark, self-publishing has become accessible and cost-effective. This approach allows authors to publish their work without large upfront investments in printing and distribution.
In contrast, traditional publishing often involves a more competitive and selective process. Manuscripts are submitted to literary agents, who then negotiate with publishing houses. If accepted, the publishing house covers the production costs, distribution, and marketing. However, authors typically relinquish a significant portion of their creative control and royalties in exchange for these services.
In essence, self-publishing offers greater autonomy and potential for higher royalties, while traditional publishing provides established industry expertise and broader distribution networks. The choice between the two depends on your goals, preferences, and the level of involvement you desire in your book's publication journey.
