Hello. I'm writing a book series that I had intended to self-publish, but two beta readers recently advised me to aim to get it published with Dreamspinner or Carina Press.
Can anyone with publishing experience kindly offer me more insight? I am familiar with both of the processes, the expenses involved in self-pubbing, etc. I'm more interested in concrete information about whether it's worth receiving a smaller percentage of the royalties in exchange for an increase in sales or particular marketing expertise.
If you published with either of these presses, what was your experience with their marketing? Their subsidiary rights? If you both self-pubbed and worked with one of these presses, did you need to market less yourself when you opted for Dreamspinner/Carina?
Thank you!
