Continuing my search for a DIY publisher, I decided to add Lulu.com to my short list. I had previously seen Lulu, and at the time wasn’t overly impressed. Things have changed. Lulu’s self publish options have expanded beyond books, far beyond in fact. Offerings now range from books to calendars to mouse pdas for printed materials, but things don’t stop there, oh no! You can also self publish CD’s and DVD’s, digital artwork, even ringtones! And this is only a partial list…
Like Wordclay, Lulu is free to use, and has optional paid features, should you want them. You can purchase an ISBN number, as well as marketing packages, and professional services. Prices seem a little steep to me, with the caveat that I don’t yet know what “fair” is in this marketplace.
Lulu also has an online shop that gets your book listed. Unless you want to pay for one of the marketing packages, marketing is again, up to you, but that seems to be standard fare for DIY Publishing. Which might be a good part of the reason it’s called “Do It Yoursief”…
The journey continues…
