Publishers are Dead—Publishing is Alive!

by | Book Design

Publishing books is alive and well today. In fact, you can publish your own book, or get help from someone like me to publish your own book—and in the end you can OWN your book along with all of the rights, privileges, and income that come from it!

There is no longer the need to give your work or a percentage of your work to a publishing house. they provide next to nothing for your book, except the network and connections to services like professional printing.

But access is no longer a scarce commodity! Information is free, and you can get good quality information , support, and serivce for very little investment.

But the key is to know HOW to do it—and not get taken!

Don’t pay money for a publisher who is selling promises!

Instead, find mentors and teachers who help you succeed by helping you to become a better writer—find services that will whow you how to become a published author!

A friend of mine recently entered retirement and became a photographer and creator, selling his work online. He wrote a short story to go along with a series of beautiful Eagle photos he had captured, then he hired a “publisher” (Not us) who made promises, and delivered less than nothing! What they gave him was worse than what he had provided them initially to work with!

Wasting your time and money can be such a discouragement, and he mentioned it to me during one of our Photoshop training sessions. I got angry first, then sad, then quickly realized that we could move forward and publish!

I am very pleased to say that because of the trust and friendship we built in training, Michael Salmon is now a published author with a beautiful children’s book that came from the design services of Pixel Glyph Press.

Check out the book, “Freedom and Liberty Take Flight” in our collection of new releases!

He is just one recent story of success, but he almost lost heart and faith in publishers.

There are so many independent publishers out there now. This means something—a couple of things acutally.

First: what’s so special about publishers? You can become a publisher if you want to. But would you really want to?

I became a publisher with just a very small investment and one customer!

Okay, the second thing this indicates is that—if there are publishers everywhere, there is probably plenty of opportunity in the publishing business!

Look out for publishers who are willing to take your money, but offer nothing in return, or very little.

Yes, we want to help you become a published author and feel proud of our success at helping people like you to find creative success.
