Publishing Demystified

The purpose of this one is simple. Most likely everyone here knows I run Fae Corps Publishing and I have been doing this in the background for a while now. I plan on talking clearly about the tools I use for publishing, and the way that each one works. Demystifying what I do. Is that to say that I will be making my own self unnecessary? No, because my experience is valuable. I just feel like so much of the process is made out to be harder than it needs to be.

I see quite a few small presses come and go.

The publishing industry is not an easy one.

Some of the ones that have seen remain are run by decent people who are in the industry because they honestly believe in their authors.

I end up trying to get authors that I want to read to publish.

I have to read everything that I publish, and I enjoy it.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

I am doing a question and answer interview for this purpose soon .

I have been doing this for a while but I don’t know what I should post about today .

However , I did get asked to teach about how publishing works .

so , keep an eye on the fae corps publishing YouTube and the Owl Light network on YouTube. if you have any questions about publishing feel free to ask . I will see if I can get it touched on in the interview.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

Okay I will admit it.

Today I want to get on my soapbox, just a little bit.

Every publishing company has a set of rules for submissions. some are just because it makes it easier to read the submission … others are because of the people who are reading the submission.

Fae corps publishing asks for the submission to be sent in either a doc or Google docs link. We ask for no Erotica or Excessive Gore.

The first part is so that if it’s accepted it will make it easier to get it edited and then placed in a manuscript.

The second one is because I have to read everything that I publish.

The latest anthology subject was monsters. I expected it to be a small bit of horror and gore. I really don’t want to be a jerk but I didn’t expect anything with erotica in it .

I read some erotica .

On my own personal terms, when I am in the correct mindset for it. when I am not in the proper mindset I will be unable to deal with it.

I also recommend you to send trigger warnings when you send story submissions. If I receive a story with something that requires a trigger warning and it doesn’t have one …it is not going to be at the top of the approval list .

You want to get your story in the book …also don’t pester the editor before they have a chance to even read all the submissions.

okay soapbox done.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

There are many different places that an indie publishing company has that we can use to publish the book. I admit that I have been unable to go through all of the options yet.

The biggest ones are draft2digital, Amazon, Google play, Barnes and Noble, and Ingram spark. Smashwords used to be a good one as well but they merged with D2d.

now most of my research is based on the US. I want to extend my reach to the rest of the world…. Amazon and Ingram are good for this. but I don’t think that they are all that I want.

Especially with Amazon and the policy of allowing people to read the book and then return it for stupid reasons.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

This week I want to talk about the timeline for publishing. Every firm has a different way to do it. This is my timeline.

I plan for the release date roughly two months ahead, most of the time.

The first month is editing, cover design, and formatting for the manuscript. This is when I get the preorder link setup.

I go back through around the second month and check that I have done all of the settings and everything is ready for release day.

The last week before release is another check. Usually it is Amazon needing a last minute detail run. I try to get everything done in the first week so I don’t have to stress about it.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

This week I want to discuss what Fae Corps Publishing actually is willing to publish and why.

We avoid extreme gore. We avoid erotica. We do not pursue the political end that dehumanizes. We don’t publish Manga. We have yet to publish game books – through this may change in the future. We will not publish anything promoting Rape.

Extreme gore, dehumanizing political stories, and promoting Rape are all because they make us feel uncomfortable.

Erotica takes a special marketing, and it is not a thing we are aware of the readership for. We are not against erotica, but we are ignorant of the marketing skills and admit it freely.

Manga, and sometimes graphic novels, takes a skill to do the layout. It is not a skill that I yet possess. I may be able to learn it… But I’m not in a hurry to add to my platform.

Now I have listed the non publish list…. Here’s the list of the things we like to publish…

Speculative fiction, Horror, Science fiction, romance, Poetry (all poetry), Children’s Books (both picture book and chapter book), Young Adult, Fantasy, nonfiction (memoir, writing tips, etc)

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

This week I want to discuss scheduling for book releases.

When I first started to do the publication thing, I would just publish the book as soon as I had it ready. I did nothing for marketing and I wondered why I was not selling anything.

Then I learned about pre-order and the benefits of that. I learned about marketing the book. I learned that both of these things have a timeline. Amazon will put you on a year long restriction from doing pre-orders if you mess up with the timeline. It’s not a good thing.

It gives you roughly a week before the day of release to have all of the information for the book in. I am often overwhelmed and forgetful. So I set myself a deadline to get everything settled by nearly a month ahead of the release date.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

No, because my experience is valuable. I just feel like so much of the process is made out to be harder than it needs to be.

This one is about the various people that are useful to a publisher… Some of them I have been doing the job for. Some of them I have to find myself on occasion.

Editor – most of the time people don’t realize that this is an umbrella term. It breaks down into a couple of different things. Line/copy editing is what I do. It is going over and checking for spelling and grammar issues. It’s the most basic form of editing. This is the one that catches the typos and the spelling oops that makes a manuscript look like it was written by less than a professional. It is a necessity. There’s also Developmental editing. I am not capable of this. (well I might be capable but I don’t want to.) I have a short list of people that I refer the authors who need this to. They have to deal with the cost of the editor at that point.

Social media management – this is also known as a publishing Assistant or a PA. I am so lucky to have Jenny Elliott in this role and we have gotten to the point of needing others to help. I currently have Cindy Pilcher and Angel Ellison doing this as well. People can’t buy the books if they don’t know about it. So our street team is there to see the marketing images get seen.

Illustration – Fae Corps is currently looking for illustrators willing to be recommended. I can do some. I am not always going to be what the author wants. I would love to have a similar list of illustrators as I do with my developmental editors.

Narrators – this is a fairly new one for us. We have one that is in the process of getting set up so we can do audio books, and we have an agreement to share the royalties for payment. I would love to have a couple more options for the authors.

Cover creator –  So far I have been the one who does this, but I have accepted it when my authors have brought me covers from other places. I only have a few rules (No Ai. They have the license. Not prepublished)

The last one is the reader… Especially when you leave reviews. The reviews are not for me or the author… They are to feed the algorithm. They are to tell other readers that this book is worth the read. Even if you get a book from a library, I would encourage you to leave a review on goodreads.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

This week I want to talk about the details.

Each site I use to publish has a different set of requirements for the manuscript and cover.

The title has to be each word capitalized. The author has to have two names.

The manuscript has to be at least 24 pages to be published.

The manuscript has to be as free of errors as possible.

Okay. This week I want to address a couple of the elephants in the room where publishing are concerned. Both of these have come up and they bother me.

First, Editing does not mean your writing is bad. And your Editor is not the final say in what is good for your writing. Though these are two separate things, they are only the first item I want to address. You are the only one that knows how your writing should be. Everyone has Typos, and if it is a minor thing that doesn’t affect the voice of your piece then you should think about the editing suggestions. However, Again, you are the final say in the words used. This is why AI editors are not so good as a dependable thing. You may be trying to use a dialect that is somewhat different (Appalachian speech patterns, British speech patterns, etc) or you may have specific reasons for the words you used. (For example in poetry). Do not hesitate to tell your editor no when dealing with your work.

The second thing that has come up recently is the assumption that publishing is easy. That once I have the formatted and edited manuscript all I have to do is basically push a button. I personally publish to FIVE different sites, each with their own requirements. I have to take the manuscript and create an epub and a PDF. I have to have the proper cover file for all five sites. Then I use Books2read to make sure the links are all in one place. I also have to make sure the author is happy with it all, and I have to deal with the accounting when royalties are paid. That is not counting any thing I do for promotion. (Which thankfully I have a team for to assist me). So someone told me that I was not doing a lot after the manuscript was done…I wanted to scream. I don’t think anyone realizes the amount of work that goes into getting a book made. Especially if you want it made with any quality.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help.
