If you’ve been rejected by publishing companies, you may have decided to self-publish your book. Self-publishing does not mean that you have to take on roles of author, editor, illustrator, and promoter. There are several book publishing services available, and many of them can be accessed online. You can have your manuscript proofread, edited, and illustrated through companies that provide these services. They also have the ability to promote your book for you. When employing the use of such services, be sure to inquire about package deals. Many companies offer deep discounts when you use more than one of their services, which may mean that you can afford more services than you originally thought you could. The more services that you use, the more chances for success you have.
