Dunno anything about CreateSpace - but ya gotta have a print version.

I forget why.
Your site look...I think Zoe uses LS. I forget why.<br /><br />Your site looks great! Have you thought about putting a clickable cover image in the right column under "News Flash"?<br /><br />Formatting for print is major intense compared to ebook formatting. It's totally different. After you re-size the page, you have to tweak Word to make the pages number correctly, then you have to go through page-by-page to check for widows and orphans, and getting rid of those things is a pain in the butt. (Cause when you get rid of one, another pops up two pages down the road.)<br /><br />It was fun, though. I'm going to start playing with an Adobe InDesign trial, see if it's $700 easier there, LOL.Spy Scribblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14299551957327543491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125214612971306615.post-72804958379766591222011-02-11T16:35:26.935-05:002011-02-11T16:35:26.935-05:00I don't know. CreateSpace was relatively easy ...I don't know. CreateSpace was relatively easy to work with, although compared to just e-publishing it was a giant pain in the butt. I'll continue to do it through CreateSpace just because they're affiliated with Amazon, whereas I think Lightning Source is affiliated with one of the distributors. I do remember looking at LS's site and saying WTF? Whereas with CreateSpace it was more WTF? as I was trying to figure out the layout, to which I eventually turned to Natasha to save myself from myself.Mark Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09410424046477699059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125214612971306615.post-23818560725038080402011-02-11T15:53:25.002-05:002011-02-11T15:53:25.002-05:00Yeah, I've been debating that.
And I've ...Yeah, I've been debating that. <br /><br />And I've been debating, if I was to do that, is Lightning Source or CreateSpace better? Ideally, I'd want to control the pricing.Jon VanZilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14026643422328853037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125214612971306615.post-88866190948775228502011-02-11T15:48:51.616-05:002011-02-11T15:48:51.616-05:00Now you need to consider a paper version via Creat...Now you need to consider a paper version via CreateSpace, and you can go off and visit schools and stuff.Mark Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09410424046477699059noreply@blogger.com
