Step 1
Determine your publishing objectives: Why are you
embarking on this project? Do you want to get published by
a traditional publisher, do you want to self-publish or do
you want to get published in cooperation with Cosimo? Who
is your audience? How will you position your book to find
this audience? When do you want your book to be available?
How many advance copies will you need at the launch of the
book? |
