As a life-long writer with plenty of jaundiced experiences with traditional publishers, several years ago I explored self-publishing. Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: KaBoOm, Publishing with a company isn't supposed to cost you anything. Financially, that is. What it costs is dealing with publishers. Just to clarify the previous entry/question, the ISBNs cost varying amounts depending on how many you buy at a shot. Ten cost $250 but you can buy them from other folks than Bowker... you save a bunch of money by buying them ten at a shot from the source, however. If you buy them from someone else, they have already bought them at the cheapest rate and are re-selling them to you individually at a higher rate. I think there may be an annual fee ($25?) from Amazon Advantage to list the books, but whatever it is, it's minimal after the initial set-up. |
