Although I may be jumping the gun a bit here, it is looking like I might soon be in the position to choose between two different publishers for my non-fiction book (*hopehopehopehope*). One is an academic press, the other is not.
The advances offered by each are pretty close, and both are highly reputable, so those factors alone don't sway me. What else should I be considering here? Is there a significant difference between how an academic publisher does business as compared to a commercial (non-academic) publisher?
Thank you!
