The Rainbow Trout book
While in the UK in March I read about a company called Lulu.com which allows people to self-publish their own books at no cost the author. This means anyone with a computer and the internet can publish and sell a book. And if only 5 people want to buy that book? Then Lulu will only print those 5 books. Publishing on demand... now that's hot shit.
Of course this brings the price per book way up from a traditional large print run, but, for people like me who arn't likely to sell more than a handful... it's perfect. I tested out the quality of the printing and binding and it's fairly good for digital. So, I decided to put together a little compelation of work... The Rainbow Trout & Other Comix.
It's selling for $13.99 US, and it costs something like $12.03 to print, per book with another 0.25 going to Lulu's comission. Oh, and it's full color.
