You most certainly know how to keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Fantastic job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!

So they take preference and majority in the sales and the translator also gets 15%? Lmao no wonder it’s free. If it was a “service” they wouldn’t be going anywhere and they’d be out of business quick. It’s not a rip off, because as you said it’s free international exposure, but they are making more money than you are off it unless you become the next Stephen King so they better offer a damn free service. Again, thanks for the article brother keep up the good work also got your Ebook.

No one realizes how much goes into self-publication and how many “hats’ you have to wear. I can honestly say it can be overwhelming at times. However, it is so rewarding knowing all the hard work you put into your project does pay off in the end.

There’s no reason for me to recite all of the same stuff that’s on their website. I’m sure someone there could answer more specific questions as well.

And yes, the first 10 pages of translation CAN and DO indicate the quality of the whole book’s translation. I’ve got the sales, emails, and reviews to prove it. The implication that someone could go horribly wrong after approving the first 10 pages isn’t unwarranted, but it is an edge case.

What protects your translated book from being illegally modified, duplicated and/or distributed? Who will actively promote your book, instead of simply publishing and listing it for sale? The first 10 pages of translation do not and cannot indicate the quality of the whole book’s translation.
