One of the hardest things that a writer has to go through is to have some one publish his book or manuscript.
There are some who learned how to publish their own works and were able to do so successfully.
They are called on demand publishers because they can publish their own books at their own demand.
They can accomplish this by hiring the services of print on demand (POD) publishing or they can go through the motion of true self-publishing.
Others get in touch with a renowned publisher and have him or her publish his book.
It is more stressful to go through with the latter because you may have to go through several publishers before finding someone who is willing to publish your book.
Even the authors of the books that we read now have gone through several rejections in their lifetime.
This is the reason why most writers become on demand publishers or self publishers.
However, before you go any further with self-publication, you should know how much it would cost you.
Actually, you have to know the pros and cons of each option before proceeding with one.
For print on demand publishing, you have to know that it works best if you are not really concerned with making a sale.
Some have actually advised to steer clear away from print on demand if you want to establish your career as a writer especially if you are new at it.
It is easier to go this route but it is not for every writer.
