My mom is finishing up her first Christian book and I really think that it has a great chance at making it big. Her biggest concern is finding a publishing company that would get her the right amount of money that her work deserves instead of the company taking most of the profit. I've done alot of research and alot of these companies seem too good to be true, and most of them probably are. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I just need the names of some publishing companies that would be best for her. Any help is greatly appreciated.What are some legitimate Christian publishing companies that would not cheat the author out of their money?
First purchase a copy of Writer's Market 2008. It contains listings of publishers and agents across the country and it includes information on how to write great query letters. It's only $20 on amazon.com. Then check the reputation of any editor, agent or publisher at Preditors %26amp; Editors (http://anotherealm.com/prededitors/ ) and Absolute Write Bewares and Background Check (http://www.absolutewrite.com/forums/ ). Only work with agents that follow the Association of Authors' Representatives Canon of Ethics. Don't work with any agents or publishers that charge reeding or editing fees. Be especially sure not to get involved with anybody on this list: http://www.absolutewrite.com/forums/show鈥?/a> You can look through my starred questions for more info on becoming published.What are some legitimate Christian publishing companies that would not cheat the author out of their money?
