• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Create Space did not seem right for my writing projects. From what I understand if you use the free ISBN offered through Create Space, your distribution options become more limited. I really wanted lots of control over my publication, so I went with hp mag cloud. I was pleased even though each copy is more expensive than I think it should be. You can take a look at what I created on hp mag cloud for free by visiting kimbond.webs.com. I have not looked into Virtual Bookworm myself, but I have heard good things about it. Let me know what your experience with self-publishing is.

I used CreateSpace and have been very pleased the result. The quality is excellent. As for distribution, Amazon (which now owns CreateSpace) is of course included, but you can also pay slightly more to ensure broader distribution (Barnes & Noble etc.).

In short, highly recommended. If you're looking for a simplified guide to the whole self-publishing endeavor, check out my recent blog ("Publishing Your First Novel") through the link below. For more detail, I recommend David Gaughan's blog on the topic.

All the best with your publishing!

I'm not sure if this question has been asked before. I'd like any information about Create Space e-publishing. Has anyone used it, or does anyone know anything about it? Any and all information would be most helpful.
Thanks!
Yes, I've published three books on Createspace. The BEST advice I can give you is to have an amazing eye-catching cover. My cover designer is amazing, and she is super affordable. Check her out. www.laceyoconnor.com Also, let me know if you need any help learning Createspace! --Angela
