Steps To Publish Traditionally
If you prefer a more classic route, here is how you can publish traditionally:
- Find a Literary Agent or Independent Publisher: Most traditional publishers prefer submissions that come directly through agents.
- Submit Your Manuscript: Therefore, once your manuscript is completely finished and polished, you can submit it for review.
- Sign a Publishing Contract: However, if your manuscript is accepted, the independent publishing company or publisher will offer you a formal contract.
Modern Self-Publishing
Self-publishing allows you to independently produce and sell your book without relying on a traditional publisher. Additionally, when you work with an independent publishing company, you retain full creative and financial control over your project.
To begin, here are the top platforms to consider:
- Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP): This is currently the most popular platform for eBooks and print-on-demand paperbacks.
- IngramSpark: This platform offers much wider international print distribution.
- Draft2Digital: It helps distribute your eBooks seamlessly to multiple global retailers.
- Lulu: This option is ideal if you require custom formats like photo books or hardcovers.
- Smashwords: Finally, this site is highly focused on distributing eBooks directly to global markets.
