Question 1: I wrote a book myself. How can I publish it? Please, the great gods have worked hard to write a book and think it is worth publishing. How can it be published? First of all, determine what kind of books, novels, literature, science and technology, education do you write? After the type of the book is determined, you can find the information of the relevant publishing house. Every publishing house has its own publishing field and advantages. There are more than 500 publishing houses in China, so how do you find a publishing house that suits you to publish your works? For example, if you have just finished reading an architectural book, the easiest way is to go to the architectural book counter of a bookstore (or even a specialized architectural bookstore), where most excellent architectural book publishers in China are basically concentrated, and even you can find books similar to your own works. For example, by browsing and comparing, you have locked in several publishing houses, such as China Building Industry Press, Tsinghua University Press and Southeast University Press. Next, you can log on to the websites of these publishing houses for further understanding. Some publishers can also find the email and telephone contact information of relevant editors. Before contacting publishers and editors, simply analyze the market value of your works. Some books have high quality, wide readership and worry-free sales. These books are generally welcomed by publishers, and the publishing process will be relatively smooth. At the same time, the author can get corresponding remuneration while publishing his own works. There are generally two kinds of remuneration. One is writing remuneration, that is, paying remuneration according to the number of words in the work. For example, a book has 200,000 words, with 50 yuan per thousand words, so the total remuneration is 20 (ten thousand words) × 10×50 yuan = 10000 yuan; The other is royalties. The royalty rate of general books is 6% ~ 9%, which is related to the pricing and sales of books. For example, if a book is priced in 20 yuan and actually sells 5,000 copies, and the royalty rate is 8%, then the author's royalty is 20 yuan × 8% × 5,000 copies = 8,000 yuan. No matter how the author obtains the remuneration, he must deduct the corresponding personal income tax, that is, = (remuneration-basic tax exemption) ×20%, but there are always some reasonable tax avoidance measures. In the second case, some books are profound and professional, with a narrow audience and poor market expectations. Most publishers of such books will ask the authors to provide some financial support. Because publishing a book also requires certain costs, such as printing fees, reading fees, typesetting fees and so on. The amount of funds is related to the content of the book, the number of words, the number of prints, the use of paper, the design of binding and layout, and the communication with publishers and editors. By the way, the book number (ISBN) can be said to be the ID card of the book, with which the book can be published. According to the regulations of the relevant state departments, it is strictly forbidden to buy and sell ISBN, but many remote areas and weak publishing houses make a living by selling ISBN. The last situation is somewhere in between, that is, the book market is uncertain, and it is difficult for authors and editors to judge the market prospect of the upcoming works. Here, we can share the risks and benefits of both parties, that is, the author provides part of the funding and the publishing house also bears part of the market risks. For example, the total publishing cost is 30,000 yuan, the author contributes10.5 million yuan, and the other half is borne by the publishing house. I wrote a book myself. How can I publish it? Books, audio and video

Question 2: I have written a book, how can I publish it? Publication: The procedures for publication include:

1, complete the work and input/typesetting, design the cover, and make the manuscript neat, clear and final;

2. Submit directly to the editorial department of the publishing house or find an agent to publish your work;

3, by the publishing house or agent preliminary selected topics, manuscripts, signed a publishing contract or agency contract;

4. Pay related expenses: publishing management fee (ISBN fee) and editing fee (some publishing houses do not charge or are not included in the management fee);

5. Enter the publishing process (if the agency publishing is generally about one month or less);

6. After the manuscript review is completed, the publishing society will issue the book number, CIP, and order form. (Some of them have power of attorney);

7. Printing-distribution.

In addition, you need to prepare the following materials before the book is published:

1. Title (tentative), content introduction, author and introduction, catalogue and sample chapter;

2. Manuscript: it is required to be neat, clear and finalized, that is, the whole draft/final version of the collated version;

3. Power of attorney for our (or publishing house's) works (the power of attorney of the original author or publishing house is also required).

The title, introduction and author of the above items must be available, otherwise the topic cannot be submitted.

In addition, it is difficult for ordinary authors to contact the publishing house directly. They don't pay much attention to us, or they will "treat us badly". Let us wait for a few months.

In this regard, you can find an agent or a familiar editor to explain your topics and ideas and your book market potential.

Ask a few more questions, if not, you can publish at your own expense, and the cheapest one in China may be around 3000.

In addition, if you think your work is better, don't send the whole manuscript and the final title directly to booksellers or publishers, so as to prevent people from seeing and hearing.

Submission: Find the format published by the publishing house, write the manuscript according to this format, and then submit the manuscript to the publishing house through the text version or electronic version, waiting for the reply from the publishing house.

Question 3: I wrote a book, how to publish it and how much does it cost? At present, there are two main publishing methods, one is formal publishing, and the other is self-funded publishing.

Formal publishing means that you contribute to a book company or publishing house. If your book has a certain market, they will consider publishing it for you regularly and give you a certain reward.

Publishing at your own expense means that there is no market for your book. If you want to publish it, you can only bear the cost of publishing it yourself. Publishing fees include ISBN management fees, editing and reviewing fees, typesetting and design fees, printing and binding fees, etc. The specific cost is related to the number of words, format, printing quantity, printing color, technology, paper and publishing house of your manuscript. Generally speaking, the number of single books published by domestic regular publishing houses is at least 1 10,000.

If you want to publish at your own expense, just find a special publishing company. As long as you submit the manuscript, everything else will be done by the publishing company, and finally you will be given the book published according to your requirements. -Shangshi cultural media

Question 4: How to publish your own works For unknown authors, especially first-time contributors, they have made great efforts to complete a book. Generally, I have had the experience of sending the manuscript to the mailbox of the publishing house widely, but there is no news, or people say, "Send it first, let me have a look", and then there is no news, useless, useless!

I was also an author before I became a planning editor. This happened to me at first, which made me depressed: Are all editors in China as blind as a bat? Can't you see such a great work? I was full of confidence from the beginning, and then I was depressed, and even seriously doubted the level of my manuscript: one or two editors are as blind as a bat. Are all editors in the world as blind as a bat? Is it really impossible?

However, several of my manuscripts were later published, and bestsellers were also published in Taiwan Province Province and Hongkong. The explanation is not that the manuscript is poor. Why is late submission easy to succeed? That is, I made an action: "think backwards": what should the editor know and what information should I provide to facilitate the editor's judgment and speed up the decision-making process?

Later, as a small planning editor, I often deal with the author, and I understand how important this practice is. There are too many authors, too many manuscripts, and some even don't leave contact information. Editors, on the other hand, have many phone calls and meetings during the day. They have to review manuscripts, revise manuscripts, read typesetting and draft cover text. Some people have to worry about marketing. Unless it is a very good manuscript, they can hardly finish reading it.

In addition, you are faced with various manuscripts, such as economic management, parenting education, medical care and even majors. Although the editor has a wider range of knowledge and some have a finer division of labor, it is not the editor who knows the market situation of competing manuscripts and is very familiar with the current development trend of the industry. Professionally, some are not as good as the author. Planning editors can easily tell whether your book is a best seller or not, and whether the readers of this book are large or not. In fact, he can't judge completely accurately in other aspects.

Therefore, in addition to "reader-oriented", the author uses the writing skills of bestsellers to write bestsellers, except (professional academic works and pure literary works, there are many good books, and their value is naturally recognized, so I won't discuss them here), I think the submission skills can be improved, so the chances of success of the manuscript will be greatly increased:

First, relevant manuscripts

Except some old publishing houses no longer require paper manuscripts, more submissions are electronic manuscripts.

Because it is an electronic manuscript, it is easier to typeset and print. Therefore, in order to protect copyright, it is suggested that the whole manuscript should not be submitted, but the catalogue and sample chapter should be submitted. A sample chapter usually consists of two chapters, the creation progress, the total number of words or the estimated number of words.

In fact, even if the whole manuscript is submitted at the beginning, it is useless because no one has read it.

If there is an intention to publish, only the full draft will be given. Moreover, when giving the full draft, ask the editor's real name, company name and telephone number first, and declare that he has a chat record or an email sending record. All the manuscripts you sent are registered, so it's easy to trace them, and let him ensure that the manuscripts don't flow out.

This requirement should be understood by editors with professional ethics. (But there is no need to make this request for a regular large publishing house, otherwise people will be unhappy. )

Second, about your introduction.

Some authors are very careless when introducing themselves. This is the important part. Because through your own introduction, you can learn about your experience, and whether you wrote this book out of nothing or have some experiences.

Not a famous writer, if you win by the quality of books, the author's experience is very important, and sometimes it is also an important aspect of book marketing.

If you have published a work, please remember to write it down. If you are a trainer at the same time, if you are a management and psychological inspirational book, your score will undoubtedly increase.

Third, about the selling point of the works and the orientation of readers.

"I just write, you just publish and sell." Many authors just write books, regardless of whether the works have selling points or not. Who are the readers? This is a common misunderstanding for beginners.

When a publishing house gets your work, it will first weigh these factors. Are there many similar books in this book? Is it the "Red Sea" of competition? Among similar books, does this book have a selling point, who is the positioning, and has a large readership? What is the purchasing power of readers?

Not to mention private publishing, that is, after the restructuring of traditional publishing houses, they are trying to survive and live better. A book that is sure to lose money, a book with great risks, do you think many people are willing?

Therefore, if the author can understand this before writing (how to write a bestseller will open a new topic, which will not be shown here, hehe) ... >>

Question 5: How long does it take to publish a book? How long does it take a book from submission to publication? If you want to publish a book, when your manuscript has been designed and typeset, the application number will be about one month, and then the printing will be delayed for a little time, and the book will be published in less than two months. If your manuscript is not typeset, it may take a long time.

If an individual publishes a book and cooperates with a publishing company, the publishing company generally has its own audit, and of course typesetting and design are also indispensable. I have already reviewed the manuscript in the publishing company, and then I will take it to the publishing house, and their review will be much more convenient and quick.

At present, most publishers and booksellers are looking for specialized typesetting companies to typeset and make films. In the publishing process of regular publishing houses, the system of "three reviews and three proofreading" is implemented, that is, a manuscript can only be printed after three reviews and three proofreading. The manuscript was read out in sequence in three trials. After each of the three proofreading, it should be sent back to the typesetting company for revision, and then the next proofreading. Therefore, before a manuscript goes to press, the typesetting company should produce five samples-the original manuscript, one proof, two proofs, three proofs and proof.

The cover of books is usually coated paper or special paper, and the body paper mainly includes offset paper, light paper, writing paper and so on. Among them, writing paper is mainly used for books with low paper requirements such as teaching materials. It should be noted that paper costs are variable costs. Printing and binding, including plate-making costs, printing costs, ink, loss, labor and many other details, is very complicated, and the editors of general publishing houses are not clear. The more books are printed, the lower the average cost of each book. To a certain extent (tens of thousands or even more), the cost of each book is basically paper money.

Question 6: What should I do if I want to publish a book? Is there any procedure? Is it difficult? You can refer to 5book/, which contains the process, cost, time and so on. It is very detailed. Specifically, the publishing program includes:

1, complete the work and input/typesetting, design the cover, and make the manuscript neat, clear and final;

2. Submit directly to the editorial department of the publishing house or find an agent to publish your work;

3, by the publishing house or agent preliminary selected topics, manuscripts, signed a publishing contract or agency contract;

4. Pay related expenses: publishing management fee (ISBN fee) and editing fee (some publishing houses do not charge or are not included in the management fee);

5. Enter the publishing process (if the agency publishing is generally about one month or less);

6. After the manuscript review is completed, the publishing society will issue the book number, CIP, and order form. (Some of them have power of attorney);

7. Printing-distribution.

In addition, you need to prepare the following materials before the book is published:

1. Title (tentative), content introduction, author and introduction, catalogue and sample chapter;

2. Manuscript: it is required to be neat, clear and finalized, that is, the whole draft/final version of the collated version;

3. Power of attorney for our (or publishing house's) works (the power of attorney of the original author or publishing house is also required).

The title, introduction and author of the above items must be available, otherwise you cannot submit the selected topic ingot.

? Generally speaking, the related expenses of publishing a book can be divided into: prepress design, publishing and printing, which are specifically divided into:

Pre-press design: recording and typesetting (including film production) and cover design (including film production)

Publication: ISBN fee (management fee) and editing fee.

Printing: cover printing (including paper, printing, laminating and post-printing), body paper, body printing and binding.

Suppose the book is a traditional 32-page book, 300 pages, single-volume odd number, monochrome offset paper printing 10000 volumes. The cost for a bookseller to run a book is as follows:

1, ISBN 10000 ~ 15000 yuan, editing fee 0 ~ 2000 yuan, 10000 ~ 17000 yuan.

2. Contribution fee: 3000 ~ 10000 yuan.

3. The design, recording, arrangement and production cost is 3,000 yuan.

4. Paper, printing and binding cost 30,000 yuan.

5. Other expenses (warehousing and logistics communication management, etc. ) 5000 yuan.

Then the cost is 5 1, 000 ~ 65000 yuan, and the median is 58000 yuan. Then the cost per share is 5.80 yuan.

But they usually sell for about 60% off, that is, 10 yuan, 4.2 yuan profit.

The profit of provincial wholesalers is 10%, and the rest are basically retail bookstores.

As for individual publishing, the situation is more complicated. According to our experience, it is generally difficult for an individual author to make a profit when publishing a book for the first time, but there are many factors that determine whether a book is profitable, such as topic selection, content, packaging, marketing and channel development. It depends on how you operate it.

Question 7: I wrote a book. How can I publish it? 1. If you contribute to the publishing house, you can send a list of topics, author profile, content profile, sample chapter, etc. , don't send the whole draft.

2. You can get royalties and negotiate the appropriate royalties with the publishing house. But it mainly depends on whether the publishing house is willing to give you free publication. Books are hard to do now, not to mention that you are a poem. Without celebrities, the publication of the tax system is basically impossible. Poetry can only be published at its own expense.

If you are worried about copyright issues, you can register copyright or inquire about relevant information, but you need a certain fee.

Books that are not printed by publishing houses cannot be sold in the market. Besides, celebrities have their own things to do and are not professional sellers. They specialize in books, so let's give it to a specialized book publisher. Yes, many bestsellers now rely on publicity. Without proper publicity, many books will not become bestsellers. -Shangshi cultural media

Is this ok?

Question 8: After writing a book, where will it be published? Will they agree? Hello, landlord, you can't call books, you can only call manuscripts. According to your content, you can send it to the corresponding publishing house. Generally, there is no reply for three months, and the basic hope is slim. You can read more books of the same type in the bookstore and see how other people's books are written and sold. For more publishing related questions, please consult us. Shuwei Publishing will be happy to answer you.

Question 9: Are there any requirements or hidden rules for publishing a book? This is not a "hidden rule", but a "clear rule".

Too few words, too many words is definitely not enough.

Of course, there are also relevant storage requirements for publishing books, and the specific number of words depends on the type.

I am the publisher, you can send me a message specifically.
