Well after another fine rejection I have decided that I should start my own publishing company. I do not make this decision lightly. I have thought about it many times over that last several years. I was always too afraid to take that leap.
But something inside of me has been unleashed and I will not stop until I acheive my dreams. So these little publishing companies look out for your competition!
It will be called Dancing Wolfe Press, as long as that name is not already taken in the national database.
Did you know starting a buisness is as simple as registaring your buisness name with your state and getting your tax number. There is probably a fee, but not a big one!
I hope by August 1st to have my tax # and Buisness ID ready to go!
What a wonderful world we live in!

Self-Publish?
While I have been waiting for my ship to come in, in a manner of speaking, I've been looking into Self-publishing. And there seem to be as many ways to do this as there are fish in the sea. Some of these can get expensive.
Custom book covers, interiors, ISBN's etc. can all start to add up. So though I'm really and truly considering this I would give a word of caution to not jump at the first sign of publishing oppurtunity. And consider cost wisely. After looking at some royalties figures it can get a little complex.
Also, this is really important, if you know anyone capable of drawing or graphics design that won't charge so much please point them in my direction. I would like to have someone design cover art for my book.
Some of these self-publishers provide this service also, but prices vary widely.
If I go this route I think I will be ready to publish an actual book within 60 days! It may not be what I had in mind originally, but we all have to start somewhere.
