Why I Chose CreateSpace to Print My Paperback

Why I Chose CreateSpace to Print My Paperback Why I Chose CreateSpace to Print My Paperback Yvonne M. Feltman owns a successful pet sitting company in Austin, Texas called Custom Critter Sitters and aspires to be a New York Times Bestselling Author. In this article, she talks about her experience using CreateSpace (now known as KDP Print) to create her latest nonfiction, Your Pets Are Fine†¦ and Other Lies. If you’re currently comparing the different print on demand services out there, this might just help you choose!As a first-time self-published author, the decisions I had to make after I finished writing the chapters of my novel seemed daunting. Navigating the sometimes murky waters of ISBNs, copyright, font decisions, beta readers, sensitivity readers, book  editing services, cover design, and all the seemingly endless details during the process was not easy. Only determined authors will get to the finish line and have the privilege of saying â€Å"I published a book.† Luckily, the internet is full of amazing resources for new authors, including too ls like Reedsy, where I was able to find a highly experienced editor - Adam O'Brien - to help me perfect my story.I think every author should have the opportunity for that special moment when someone asks for an autograph on their own book. That can’t quite be done on an eBook! It is neat to wonder where my paperbacks may end up - on a shelf in a guest cottage in the French Riviera, or at a garage sale 20 years from now. My book could fall into the hands of a movie producer and we could see it as a dark comedy on the big screen one day.There is nothing like walking into the local bookstore and seeing a stack of my own books on a shelf for sale. How many people do you know personally who can claim that? The answer is likely â€Å"not many.† Publishing a book is a truly unique accomplishment that not many get to claim. Luckily, in the current day, we have robust tools like Createspace and Reedsy to help make that happen.Have you used any of the POD services out there? What was your experience?
