POWERED BY MOVABLE TYPE 3.2

July 31, 2003

So You Wanna Be an Author

Many people I speak with say that they would like to get a book published some day. Having just gone through the process of self-publishing, I have to say that it was much easier and less expensive than I had expected. Below are the costs for producing a book through Lightning Source (LSI):

Startup Costs (It is possible to do a lot of these yourself depending on the quality you want and how good you are at them)

  • Illustrations - varies
  • Editing - varies
  • Cover Design - varies
  • Layout (can be done in MS Word) - varies
  • ISBN #: $225
  • Incorporation (optional) - $500
  • LSI Title Set Up - $80
  • Copyright: $20
Cost per Book

Of course, marketing is a whole other story, but that's another blog entry.
