You may send your manuscript to an agent but why wait for a possible rejection when you can always have your book published anyway? Many authors nowadays turn to self-publishing for many good reasons - they have complete creative control of their book / retain ownership rights of their work / their book never runs out of print / use it to jumpstart their publishing career, etc. Most importantly, with self-publishing, you only have yourself to convince. Self-publishing companies can help you come up with a professional-looking book, depending on your budget and needs.

it takes two to three thousand dollars to self publish. you want to keep the rights and not share them with the publisher.

I had a manuscript accepted by a self publisher that claimed to select only certain manuscripts- you didn't pay up front but you had to promote sales of your book yourself otherwise it would never make it into bookstores. I investigated a little and discovered that if you've ever self published and intend to try to publish with a 'real' book publisher in the future apparentally they don't want to touch you or your books. So I declined their offer. I may never get published but at least I'm keeping the dream alive! So my suggestion is- if you just want to publish for a novelty - go ahead try this route- if your book totally sucks and there is no hope in hell of it ever being published then also a good idea. Good luck to you and all the rest of us! :)

Self-publishing is actually a smarter way when you want to get your book published. Self-publishing saves you from going through all that waiting and those rejection letters that are usually expected with traditional publishing. Best of all, it fulfills your dream of publishing that great story you have. Many authors nowadays turn to self-publishing for many good reasons. It allows full creative control of your book and you retain ownership rights to your book - after all, you wrote the book and not you. Other than understanding how the publishing world works, it is important to entrust your work to a publishing company that will take care of your book's creation - from editing, layout and illustration, printing, marketing, etc. Your FREE publishing guide: http://bit.ly/14y3YA
