Novelist Kevin Porter chose to traditionally publish his fourth book to earn the publisher&#39;s stamp of approval. He explains that the publishing process took him 10 years, but during that time he chose to study by reading about writing, practicing writing, and reading within his genre. Benefits of self-publishing include retaining full control over an author&#39;s work and a greater portion of the profits. Self-published authors are in charge of the entire business process of bringing a book to market. The stigma against self-publishing is falling away, as publishers and readers are trying to reach readers in any way they can.</div> <div class="asl-wikipage-summary"><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver.wikis.components.files/00-00-00-02-08/KevinPorterSelfPublishing.mp3">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../KevinPorterSelfPublishing.mp3</a></div> </div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, podcast</div> https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/publishing/traditional-publishing/w/advantages-disadvantages/4085/comparing-traditional-versus-self-publishing---podcast/revision/1Mon, 09 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT809ccca5-04d2-44bf-8f5c-ff0a6d33c80b:2d81f98d-17b7-4e64-94bd-58d42f9a7bfbKevin Porterhttps://www.authorlearningcenter.com/publishing/traditional-publishing/w/advantages-disadvantages/4085/comparing-traditional-versus-self-publishing---podcast#commentsRevision 1 posted to Advantages/Disadvantages by Kevin Porter on 1/9/2017 12:00:00 AM<br /> <div class='asl-wikipage-body'><div class='asl-wikipage-summary'>Freelance writer and novelist, Kevin Porter, discusses the differences he sees when considering traditional publishing vs. self-publishing</div><div class='asl-wikipage-media'><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver.wikis.components.files/00-00-00-02-08/KevinPorterSelfPublishing.mp3">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../KevinPorterSelfPublishing.mp3</a></div></div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, podcast</div>
