Why do writers need BookBaby?

Because self-publishing can be complicated.
It’s our job to make it easy. Look, writing a book is hard enough as it is. But combine that with the need for editing, cover design, formatting, distribution, and promotion and it can turn your everyday Jekyll into a real Hyde. Let the writers write, we’ll handle the rest.

Because traditional publishing deals are so last century.
Self-publishing has existed since the 1400s (at least). But within the past 10 years, it’s become a thriving alternative to the traditional publishing model, giving writers more control and opportunities to fulfill their dreams.

Because we actually care about your book.
Unfortunately, there are some self-publishing companies out there that don’t care too much about their customers. There are many horror stories of writers being kicked to the curb as soon as the tab is paid. That’s not us. We make sure our writers have the tools and information needed to become successful authors—from manuscript to market.

Some things I like about this blog are plenty of free suggestions as well as numerous links on how to purchase services. If I reach the point where I am ready to publish and can afford it, I would look at BookBaby or a similar site to get things going.

I have re-blogged some of their posts –

Description

Based just outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (in Pennsauken, NJ), BookBaby is a team of authors, bloggers, programmers, and dreamers dedicated to helping independent authors make the journey from composition to publication. We believe all authors and writers deserve the opportunity to sell their books worldwide through Apple, Amazon, Barnes & Noble and beyond. BookBaby was conceived to help authors navigate the new era of self-publishing, eBooks and do-it-yourself (made in the USA!) printed books. BookBaby is here to support and encourage authors who want to be independent. BookBaby is the newest addition to a family of businesses dedicated to helping independent artists realize their dreams of self-publishing: CD Baby music distribution, HostBaby web hosting, Disc Makers CD & DVD manufacturing and now BookBaby for authors and writers!
