A quick question though is why not use one of the free to publish publishers rather than pay to have your book published? I can give you a few places that do it. I currently go through create space, and they've been really great actually. I sell my books to friends/family and when I play shows and such and I've gotten great reviews from people that have bought them {on the quality of the actual book}. If I wasn't broke I'd chip in with some money {us struggling artists are horrible contribution givers}. Just a few thoughts on publishing without paying money. Good luck though-K.M

One avenue open to me(anyone) is via Kindle which I have been told is done on Amazon(I have an account) and is free. I am a dinosaur with technology but have friends who may be able to help. I would love to have a paperback book of my poetry published, but am financially challenged, as many of us are. Any help will be gratefully appreciated.
