For all of the little people out there like myself. I'm not sure if you are aware of this but there is another to getting yourself published other than bowing to the big men. www.lulu.com. I'm not a spokesperson for them or anything, but I was able to self publish my book through them. I'm sure there's probably some other sites out there like this one but it's on demand-publishing. Meaning, you don't have to pay for 50 books at a time... and other people can go to the site and order your books right from the site. Pretty cool and it's a lot more flexible for me. I'm sure in the long run, it;s still cheaper to get all of the books printed in a run, but I was looking at around $300 for a run of 50. I don't have $300. I don't even have $3. I'm a father of 2 and a home owner. Anyway, if you didn't already know, now you do.

Hey Nick,
Thanks for the add and invite man.
I'm also an aspiring self publisher who hopes to see his first creator owned project released sometime in late 2008.
Looked at your work, especially your "HARIJAN" title, looks real promising, will check out that Lulu site for publishing details.

Thank you very much for your kind words. I had to go over to the orient and study with the "Masters" because of my poor use of black space. They'll be proud. Thanks again!!

Looking for tips on distribution, selling, marketing. I'm running into a brick wall on how to get my book out to people who might want to read it. Lulu is huge and I'm just a needle in a hay stack there. Also, the economy locally is really depressed. Not many of the comic book stores are biting on the book... even at cost. Have any tips, please let me know.

Thanks for the add, you Floaters you. Glad to see the INDIES making some noise.

Cheers.
