BookFuel.com launches self-publishing service for authors
Can Authors now self-publish their books without getting ripped off?
Studies show that most self-publishing authors wouldn't publish with the same publisher again. The top three complaints are low royalties, losing rights, and poor customer service. The best way for authors to fight back is self-education, community help and better access to the tools the pros use.
DENVER, April 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Self-publishing has reached the tipping point of both respect and success. "Looking at the research done by the AuthorEarnings.com team, it's clear that self-publishing is now more than just a viable option. For many authors, self-publishing provides the greatest chance of making a living as a writer," said Bill Van Orsdel, CMO at BookFuel.com.
With more evidence that self-publishing can be a viable path to success for authors, the landscape of books has become more competitive. Self-published books can now compete favorably for reader attention against the offerings of legacy publishers, and self-publishing authors have to step up their game. "Authors now have to produce a book that is competitive in every respect with legacy publishing's offerings. Quality editing, book covers, layout, and marketing plans are required if you want your book to stand out in the online market," said Scott French, COO of BookFuel.com.
