to me, publishing strictly means having physical copies of your book available for purchase
if you pay any money to publish, then you’ve messed up
first of all, if you’re published thru a publisher. then THEY should be paying YOU to publish!!
and if you self-publish through Amazon KDP then u pay nothing!! u get royalties from your sales and Amazon prints the books
ingraham or whatever is a scam. it costs you thousands for them to print tons of copies of your book that you’re never gonna be able to sell yourself. even if you setup your own website, or go to your own book fairs, ultimately you’ll have to still sell on amazon and be a seller and ship ur book thru amazon
unless of course you’re in the publishing business, and now it’s not about cost to print tons sell your own books, but those of others…
Yea I didn't really pay anything. I'm having some id issues ATM so couldn't publish there or I would have. I've already made back the small fee I paid. Publishers take a lot from your own work.
I totally understood what you were saying. Honestly waiting a year or two to publish them taking a large cut of my earnings just isn't the way I like to do things.
@realbitcoindog should know.

oh yes I love self publishing for the freedom!! and in the Bitcoin age your hardly more respected for a traditional publisher anyways
I have sold ebooks thru realbitcoindogmerch.com
Yea I'll have to take a look. First real thing I wrote was a theory on satoshi. Not the same old shit that's been used over and over.
What kind of book, what kind of publisher? Have you looked at self-publishing on Amazon?
I just published my first book.

Just wondering what people paid. I don't even want to say how much I spent.
It's also available here on agora
5,000 sats for a book unlike anything you have ever read.
I thought you made a typo and meant to ask what people were paid.
I personally wouldn't expect to pay anything. Typically publishers pay you to publish their work, historically at least. But now you can self-publish.
your work, I meant!
Yea I really didn't want to wait for a publisher to publish.
