[stylist] book publishing questions

[Lynda Lambert]

Sarah, congratulations on seeing your hard work reach a goal. That is great. 
If you work at a college, I think you can get the best advice from your 
colleagues. Publishing is an important part of the tenure process and your 
colleagues can most likely give you good information on how they have done 
it. Have a few discussions with them about their own publishing experiences. 
If they are tenured profs. then they are publishing periodically as they do 
research and presentations. Lynda

Subject: [stylist] book publishing questions


   Good afternoon. I have written two books this summer, something I never 
thought I would do. Friends and family have told me I should have them 
published. I work at a community college and my boss said I should get an 
agent. Is an agent the way to go, or should I self-publish the books on 
Amazon? If I publish them on Amazon, what format do the books have to be in? 
Is everying on that part of Amazon's website accessible with Jaws? Would I 
need to write a synopsis of the books? Does Amazon determine the price? 
Thank you.
     Sarah
