RECOMMENDED PUBLISHER -- LULU.COM 
 
Lulu is lots of fun if you like to edit and deal with a slightly tricky interactive program. You can either design your own cover art or select one of Lulu's standard cover decorations and insert photos, etc. into the text itself. The cost to publish  runs from free to a few hundred dollars. Simply to get it into print is free. Listing on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc. costs under $100.00. More extensive advertising or editing and advice cost more. The writer chooses the selling price. Books are available in hardback, soft cover and Ebook form.
 
You buy as many copies as you want to sell or distribute to friends as gifts. To do that without listing with major booksellers is without a fee. For serious sales, you will have to arrange book signings and such. Lulu may help with that for one of the higher fees -- several hundred dollars. I have no regrets about going with Lulu, and have found few if any other publishing houses that offer a similar deal. Of course, to make it to the New York Times top ten you will have to go with a larger and more prestigious publisher and pay a much higher price out of pocket. You may also have to buy a large number of copies, which then may not be sold -- not a good deal. Having no such expectations and too little physical strength for the wear and tear of arranging and going to book signings, I went the $75.00 route.
