Cool. ^_^ That's exactly what I want, actually. Just a physical copy of a book I wrote. Easier to share around for critique, too. I just tend to not trust corporations, and I was uncertain whether this would turn out to be one of those "you just gave us the rights to the book and didn't know it" deals. O_o Thanks for all the information too! I'm a long way from even considering publishing, but I do hope I'll hit that point next year after a bunch of rewrites.Sstavix wrote:One thing to keep in mind is that this is supposed to be a proof copy. Basically, a picture of what you're book is supposed to look like before it goes up for sale. So you could get a print copy of your first draft and not have to worry about it being distributed in a mass market after that. You're expected to make changes to the text, the cover, etc., based on what you find in the proof. Just something to think about.
If I do get a proof copy it'll likely still be a first draft, albeit proof read and and such. For fun.

Have you ever used CreateSpace or Lulu?
