Check out lulu thoroughly all their cost should be posted. However, read the fine print.

Vickie,

I have not self-published as of yet, but I am seriously considering self-publishing my next book, because of the research and rumors I have heard I feel that is the best way to go. Furthermore, you retain control of your profits. I am published with Publish America, whcih was a mistake and I plan to terminate my contract with them. I have found a printer, book cover design company out of Grand Rapid, MI who has 18 years in the business of nothing but book printing and cover design, with editing. It is Colorhousegraphics their website is www.colorhousegraphics.com. Sandy Gould is the contact person sandy@colorhousegraphic.com.

Thank you. I emailed them the specs for my next book to get a quote. I figure it doesn't hurt to ask. You seem to have had a good experience with them.

Vickie Oliver-Lawson,

From my research they appears to very honest and have been in the book printing business for over 20 years and their beginnings was with Zondervan.

I will be sending my manuscript over to them.

Blessings

I have self-published two books. But I recently ordered a new cover because my cover design for Black Success Stories needed to be improved. I'm a writer, not a designer!

Check them out:

Black Success Stories
Success Strategies for Black People

I have also published loads of ebooks. My new self-published ebook is What They Don't Want Us to Know.

Inspite of what nay-sayers and doubters may tell you about Authorhouse self-publishing I successfully self published my book from beginning to end, including my book cover by using the professional services from Authorhouse. www.authorhouse.com is the way to go.

Don't let people distract or discourage you with what they have "heard" about Authorhouse. Forget about what people say they heard. Go with experience, go with someone that knows.

Trust a recommendation from someone that has actually been there. I put my money where my mouth is. Trust Enoch Mubarak because if it wasn't true I wouldn't say that it was.

You can place your weekly articles where Black Author showcase members can read them by posting your blogs on the Black Author Showcase as discussions.

I have been to your blog spot and I have read your blogs dating back to 2007. They are very spiritual and should fair well with this crew because many black authors by craft and out of necessity have huge egos that make them forget sometimes from which comes their talent, gifts and strength.

There are also many black authors that won't make a move without saying a prayer first. Some black authors give glory and thanks to God in every other sentence of their discussions, accomplishments, profiles or testimonies. Either way sister this is fertile venue for your blogs.

It a is very smart strategic move to showcase your blogs as discussions because....

1. No other author in this forum exclusively post spiritual messages therefore you would be an original black Author Showcase member with a deeply respected anointing.

Your expertise as a black author of the spiritually anointed realm provides you unique member classification and recognition without competition.

2. Your anointed discussions automatically reverts back into your blogs once they align under your profile of discussions thereby providing the Black Author Showcase members 24/7 access to perpetual real time spiritual self-help without them ever having to leave the creature comforts of Black Author Showcase.

3. Black Author Showcase members reside throughout the United States and abroad. Each Black Author Showcase member in some way, shape, form or fashion can read and spiritually benefit from the humility, assurances, encouragement and deep anointing that your messages deliver.

It is because Black Author Showcase members reside throughout the United States and abroad that reading your blogs will dutifully fulfill your mission to go forth and preach the gospel throughout the world.

Posting your blogs as discussions will require the membership to either respond, confirm or recognize but they will not be able to ignore nor deny. If they ignore or deny then it is written that upon the moment of divine truth they will themselves be denied unto the father.

Ignorers or deniers books will never sell, their writings will suffer, success will elude them and no peace shall they find.


The egos of ignorers or deniers will lay bare, festered and convicted with shame for ignoring or dening the anointed messages from a God sent messager.

Sister Willie B. White may I be the first one to humble myself after reading your blogs to ask God's forgiveness and to thank you for your indulgence because in my heart I know that this reply far exceeds what you asked of me.

It was to much like right for me to simply respond to your request with merely the answer. My ego as a writer and black author has betrayed me.

I made a huge production out of my reply to you and for that I humbly thank you for your
indulgence and may God forgive me.


Sincerely, Enoch Mubarak
