[stylist] 28. Self Publishing and Insecurity (Miss Thea)

[April Brown]

Self-publishing companies won't charge you a penny.  They pay you. Self publishing companies that are reputable include Draft2Digital, Smashwords, Amazon, and even Cafe Press.

If you need an editor, that's a different story.  They will charge. And their charges are not nice.  

Publishers that request money upfront are scams, previously called vanity publishers, and as you found out before, will introduce more errors into your work than existed before.  As well as provide no marketing without payment.

Small publishers will not charge you, if they are legit publishers.
