Is Subsidy
Publishing For You? |
|
If you can answer YES to one or more
of these 8 questions, you should seriously consider
financing the publication of your work through Vantage
Press: |
|
1. |
Can you
afford to risk the fee? |
|
2. |
Do you have
deep faith in your work and believe it should be read,
even by a limited audience? |
|
3. |
Is your
subject so timely that you can't afford to wait two
years — or even two months — for a publisher's reaction
to your manuscript? |
|
4. |
Do you want
a reaction from the reading public, or from the critics?
|
|
5. |
Do you
believe that publication will help you advance in your
job, business or career? |
|
6. |
Do you
believe you'll get great satisfaction from publication
even though your book may sell few copies? |
|
7. |
Do you
believe commercial royalty houses won't bring out your
book because it's too controversial? |
|
8. |
Have you satisfied
yourself about the integrity and the financial strength
of your publisher? |
|
Subsidy
Publishing — Is It For You? |
|
• |
Paying for
publishing has its risks. |
|
• |
Some
prestige and popularity may come your way — but it
is important to recognize that you may regain only
a small part of the fee. |
|
• |
Since
books by new or unknown authors present difficult
publicity and sales problems, you should be
realistic about our subsidy publishing plan.
Hence, if your funds are needed for basic living
expenses, this program may not be for you. |
|
• |
If,
however, you may wish to pay for the publication
of your work, then by all means consider our
program seriously, and send us your manuscript. |
|
• |
You will not be
obligated in any way. |
|
