Shiny cover!
The printed copy of my first short story,
Black Suede Jacket, arrived via FedEx last week. I published it on
lulu.com, a publishing company that prints hardcover books!
Black Suede Jacket is a nonfiction short story. I selected glossy. Hence the shiny cover! The back cover is not a white board, like books published through Createspace. I think if the book had a front and back cover it would more likely be accepted by the San Francisco Public Library as a library book- More readers could check it out! I've tried twice in the past to donate copies of my book, but might've been thrown out. One time on West Portal I noticed a homeless guy on a wheelchair outside the Starbucks on the corner. I had been wondering what if I gave a homeless guy a book next time I'd be asked for change. The African-American homeless man looked interested in the book.
If you can't get enough donations, might as well read!
Black Suede Jacket should be available in bookstores and Amazon in about two months! For now, you can buy it digitally on Smashwords/Draft2digital for less than $5!
