Re: Types of Publishers And Blurred Lines

Well, I'm certainly impressed with the knowledge here, albeit I opened a worm box. I guess I fall in the vanity press department with 1stBooks Library--my hefty cost was $800.00 plus I bought a couple hundred books that cost over $2000.00 - so now I'm into over $3000.00. I was told that they would supply reviewers with copies of my book, only to have a comeback of not so. What generally is the policy on issuing complimentary books? I probably have answered my own questions.
I promote, promote, promote and like I said, I'm not sure if I'm getting what is due, but I will persist in staying above the muck. I want to thank all of you that offered me advice.
My next thought is should I divorce myself from this publisher and get these books printed in a way that I can see more of the profit? VCBarles
