It is free, I get royalties, they plan newspaper articles and book signings and the books look great! What's not to like? Not only that, but we now have Pulitzer Prize winners using it as well-doesn't that tell you something? I say that people publish for different reasons and audiences and if something works, why knock it? Incidentally, I have been published by about a dozen publishers and have written books on contract for publishers(where the writer is paid a lump sum up front). So far I have written 37 books and articles for 45 magazines. I have also spent 20 years writing for newspapers. Sure, we'd all LOVE to be published by Random House or Simon and Shuster, but you have to get into this business one way or another! A journalism scholarship, a writing award for novels, mention in the International WHOS WHO of Writers and Authors plus everything else hasn't got my food in the door with the big guns, so I will take publishing where I can get it and when I can get it without costing me anything but my time!
