Another question to share with you all. I only know how to self-publish into an eBook, but what if I wanted to turn one of them into a hard cover or paper back? Can I do that?
What got me onto this question is because we all know how huge Book reads is, right? Well, they have book giveaways all of the time, but eBooks are not allowed. You need to deliver a physical book. How do we do that?
I know that there are “print on demand” companies but can you do both? Would I need to order a PDF format to use for this? So once again, please share all of your worldly wisdom with the rest of us. Thank you!!

I’ve heard great things about createspace. If you’re already using Amazon/Kindle for your eBooks, it’s really easy to do a physical printed book.
If you’re not on Amazon/Kindle, there are plenty of print-on-demand services that will print small amounts, like 1-5 copies, for reasonable prices.
Hope that helps! Also, thanks for following my blog and liking my post! Happy writing!
Thank you very much!! That is very helpful info – I will be checking it out!!
I use create space, too. And I just met a wonderful guy who formatted the whole thing for me for $50. I had made a real mess out of it myself. Now I’m waiting for the proofs and then I believe I can order as many or as few as I want to. Here’s Jason’s web site: http://www.jasonga.com/ebook-formatting
Very nice!! Thank you so much!!
Check out Lightning Source. There is another service called The Book Patch (http://www.thebookpatch.com/). Check them out. But I’d first read Lightning Source’s website. It gives some insight into how things are done.
Ooohhhh thank you!! I am heading over there now!!
I would do a Google search. I found some great stuff about publishing but then lost all the windows I had open when my computer did an update, can’t recall the name of the sites.
