Publishing With LuLu

A very long time ago, I dreamed of becoming a published author. I always enjoyed writing and I truly believed that’s what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Then I met my husband, got married and began having kids. Anything I’d wanted to do was put on a back burner while I raised my family. And 28 years later, I’m still raising my family. But that doesn’t mean I can’t be a writer or even a published author. Times sure have changed in the past few decades.

I write every day here on this blog or one of my other blogs. I’m doing just what I always dreamed of doing and I’m doing it from my home while I tend to my family. I supposed you can say that a blog is published, right? But what about being in published on paper? What about publishing a real book? Well, yes, I can do that, too.

The best way to get published today is to self-publish and the best place to do that is at Lulu.com. Lulu.com allows the author to set their own price and sell to over a million members worldwide. You can publish everything from your first novel, your blog or a photo book to CDs and DVDs, ebooks or software for download. Lulu.com opens up the world of publishing to every creative soul with an idea.

I’ve never even attempted to send off a manuscript to a publisher; the process has always intimidated me. Now, the process has been simplified and I can publish any of my creative writing projects that I want. With Lulu.com I retain the copyright to my work and I also earn 80% of the profit. Most of all, I control the publishing of my work. I can decide to publish in hard back or paperback. In fact, I can decide on every aspect of the publishing. I like that.

I know quite a few of my readers are also writers. (If you blog, you’re a writer!) Do yourself a huge favor and check out Lulu.com. There is really no reason why someone who wants to be published should wait around for the big publishing houses to take notice. We can do it ourselves now, thanks to Lulu.com.
