Your feeback about Lulu.com?

[eaglemaina]

I have this little project that's been well on it's way since August, and stumbled upon info about Lulu.com. I'm fairly sure some of you reading this journal have used it! I'd love your feedback, good or bad on it. That would help me tons!

Thanks guys! =D

I have a book purchased from Lulu (the Zen Cart one) and it's well-made, and has survived numerous trips and exchanges with my client.

Lulu's pricing and services seemed, at last review (I was reviewing self-publishing services for a client daydreaming about doing that kind of thing...nothing came of it), better than Amazon's BookSurge, but I don't know that Amazon or Barnes'n'Noble will carry Lulu books (for a time they were making noises about not, but I don't know if this is still true; then again, Amazon's done some spectacular shot-self-in-foot things in the past year).

I bet ytou could get good info from googling something like "reviews of ___________" where __ is the name of the self-publishing service you're thinking of.

I have a few links bookmarked -- haven't checked them recently:
An Incomplete Guide to POD publishers: http://booksandtales.com/pod/index.php
Publish a Book: http://www.authorhouse.com/ContactUs/FreePublishingGuide.aspx
Wish I had more to offer! Good luck!!

Gods! Thanks you so much for all that extra info! You say you wish you had more to offer, but that's already plenty really! I will bookmark those links and share them with my group!

Thank you sooo much!
