Lulu was having problems today, but I finally got my two latest books on there. I put the Night Stalker book and a poetry book up. I decided to try Night Stalker on there. Some people might like to have a copy they can hold in their hand, and not everyone reads my blog anyway...lol. If you'd like to see my store front go here: http://stores.lulu.com/angelsharum I don't get page views or anything for showing it! No affiliate stuff or anything like that. Please let me know what you think of the stores look if you go to check it out!

You put your own stuff on there, they don't publish you. It's a self publishing site. Very easy to use when all the functions work correctly.

Congrats! I think I'll buy a copy of the book. Does it have all the characters in it?

The Night Stalker story is where I introduced all the characters. Now I am going back and doing each character's story separate. Then I believe I'm going to do another story putting them all back together somehow. Haven't got that far yet. I have a while before I get done with each characters story. Thanks if you do buy one. I'm just glad people actually like the story!

Thank you. I actually wrote the beginning of Amy's story tonight. It will be up on the blog tomorrow. I hope I can do it good and people like it as well as the others!

Hi sunnflr, I love your store front. It looks wonderful. Do you take your own pics for the cover? I have a question. Does the pic have to be in a certain format? I want to publish a book too, but it needs illustrations and I might need to get someone to have them drawn for me. So I need to know the format accepted at Lulu. Another thing, how are your books doing at Lulu? Do you buy the marketing package they have or promote them yourself? Can you sell your books at Amazon after self-publishing them at Lulu?

Yeah, I use my own photographs and then my son manipulates them with a program called GIMP to make the covers. They accept jpeg and png I know, not sure what else. I haven't sold anything yet, but I've only really started promoting the store. Also, everything else I have in there is poetry. I did not do the marketing thing with lulu, but I know a lady that did and she's sold a few at Amazon. I believe you can do the Amazon thing yourself, you just have to purchase an ISBN. Amazon and other "real" bookstores will only sell books with ISBNs.
