Independent Publishing. If I am successful I would probably approach or wait to be approached by traditional publishers for the French and Spanish language rights. Until then, most traditional publishing deals are not that attractive from a business point of view.
Traditional route. I’ve read a book called ‘Selling Rights.’’ It’s exciting to see the many avenues for selling book rights at home and abroad. Don’t the publisher’s take a cut of book sales? Sure, the agent takes 15%, but the publishing house must take something?
I applied for five publishers two have come back with hybrid offer i turnned them down and now waiting on the other 3 i will also send it off to three others so thats 8 in total wish me luckb
Thank you very much for your channel and the guidance you provide therein. I recently finished my first book in an epic fantasy series I am working on and very much hope to traditionally publish. I hired a professional editor but her busy schedule won’t have that manuscript back in my hands for 2-3 months, so trying to do as much research and preparation in that time so that I’m fully prepared for the query letter stage. Your videos have been instrumental in that preparation, especially for someone like myself where I had no idea what the process would be after getting my book edited. Thank you!
I just finished my debut work. Can't wait to send out query letters! Also def know someone is gonna look at it and be like "Hey bud, you should prob rewrite it" lol
Can you do a video on which of these would be more profitable for the author? I've self-published 2 books in a planned 7 book series and just put a stand alone on pre-order. I want a new series to start in the fall, but is it worth the time to shop it for an agent? I don't love the KDP advertising, but it's simple enough. Thanks in advance!
who has ultimate creative control contractually over the manuscript (not the cover) when traditionally published. Are you forced make a chance or revision you don't want to make because contractually the publisher has control?
Saw this video in the recommended section. I have self published two books, the latter after agents rejected it, and I wish I would have never gone the self publishing path. The costs are just tremendous and marketing is just not my thing. Now that my second book won some awards, I hope agents may be willing to take me in with my third one. I'm fine with the cons as long it gets me out of my crappy retail job.
