Außerdem kann ich bei #Tredition nicht mehr anhakeln, dass ein Buch _nicht_ in den internationalen Verkauf soll, weil ich das zB selber bei Ingram hochladen will. Wann ist die Checkbox dafür denn weggekommen? Führt jetzt zu lustigen Kollisionen und Fehlermeldungen bei #IngramSpark, dass die ISBN bereits für #BoD-Thirdparty vergeben ist. 
Womit wohl klar ist, wer der Großhändler zwischen Tredition und dem internationalen Vertrieb ist. Mannmannmann ... #Selfpublishing #PoD #PrintOnDemand
My second #novel, #GreatRiverOfTheAbyss, is now available on #IngramSpark!

So here's what happened with #IngramSpark this week. Chris had done some work putting a history book together for a local (inclusive) synagogue, not at all billing for the true hours he spent on it (think, can you pick up these handwritten notes from an elderly rabbi).
Launching on #kickstarter next week! I'm into the final preparation for the launch, making sure the formats look good on #IngramSpark and working with a local artists who make beautiful bookmarks which will be included as a reward for the signed copies.

With everyone complaining about Ingram Spark forcing the raising of retail discount to 40% across the board, I thought I'd run the numbers on D2D. But this is absurd. Yes, I don't make much on a paperback sale through IS (a little less half what I get from KDP) but it's still more than a dollar more than this. I feel like if they want people to only publish paperbacks through KDP, they're doing well...
Get yourself set up on Ingram Spark (now free) for print on demand, and Smashwords (Draft 2 Digital) for ebooks.
NB. If you use Amazon for expanded distribution you should be on Ingram Spark anyway. Amazon uses a company owned by Ingram Spark for its expanded distribution service, meaning they charge you the Ingram price plus their own fee. Cut out the middle man and save yourself some money.
Fantastic news today that #IngramSpark, an on-demand publishing service and distributor used by many #IndieAuthors, is dropping their setup and revision fees as of May 1! I mean, this is great for those of us already using them, but I think it may be huge for #book #publishing as a whole. Link down the thread:

@jodietheyer I’ve got #F1Testing on again today while I’m submitting my books to #IngramSpark. A mightily boring process. I’m a #Lando #McLaren fan but most of all, I’m a fan of #F1. I’m hoping for close racing from the start between 3-4 teams. You never know it might happen!
