Self-Publishing vs. Small Press

If you're deciding between self-publishing and working with an indie horror press, listen to this episode. Author/small press owner SC Mendes and author Lucy Leitner discuss what you can expect from each publishing route. Marketing skills for effective book promotions: What can a small press do that you can't do yourself? How much time should you expect to devote to marketing as an author? Can a small press reputation help sell your book? Investment: How much money will you need to invest to have a professional self-published product? Control: How much control do you retain when working with a small press? Why does this matter? About Your Hosts: SC Mendes and Blood Bound Books' mission is Spreading Hope Through Dark Fiction. We accomplish this by organizing blood drives, providing classroom sets of age-appropriate dark fiction books to teachers, and donating profits of certain books to children's hospitals.
