본인이 번역한 책, "고해; 격동기 중국에서의 성장기"가 한국교보문고에서
판매 중입니다.
헌국 최대 책방인 교보문고등 대형 책방에서는 "POD Service"를 제공하고
있습니다. 미리 책을 출판하여 판매 하지 않고 주문을 받아서 책을 찍어
보냅니다.
보통 아마추어 작가가 많은 돈을 들여 대량의 책을 인쇄 하여 주체 하지 못하는
단점이 없습니다. 그러나 작가가 책을 pdf file로 만들어서 교보문고에 제출
해야 합니다. 교보문고 측에서 심사를 하지만 크게 까다롭지는 않습니다.
출판 비용은 전혀 들지 않고 판매 수입은 작가 20% 교보문고 80% 입니다.
종이책을 만들고 싶은 분들이 한번 도전해 볼만한 서비스 입니다..

Doc, Thank you so much.
I just have gone through the information about the POD by Kyobo. It's wonderful.
I did not know there is such a way of publishing one's story (whatever it may be)
without going through the huge amount of expense in conventional publishing.
I knew an SNU alumnus who had spent a lot of money and trouble
as well as a long delay to publish his Nobel about his brother's life in North Korea.
He ended up with too many books and very high expenditure.
He had to pay the minimum number of books and expenses prior to publishing.
He also lost part of the book's copyright to the publishing company. They were thieves.
I have complete writings of my world climbing journals already with pictures
but was afraid to publish them due to the limited number of books that would be demanded.
For example, just part of my first traverse as a Korean in 1969 of Mount McKinley, Alaska
is over 200 pages without pictures.
I also was thinking about my own autobiography for my children and family members.
I will check this out further and get into achieving my long-wished dream of writing a book
about my own and my family history before I reach the end of my life.

I am sure you can do it relatively easily with the experience of running the website.
They want you to use Word365 in Window Microsoft computer exclusively.
Being a Apple guy, I had to buy Samsung Galaxy laptop for the publishing.
Let me know if you need any help.

Why publish with Bookbaby?
I do not know about this much, but I think this may be a good choice for books written in English.

Thanks.
The BookBaby can make a book 6x9" in size, 30 books only (for example),
finishing in a few days at about $560.
It gets cheaper as the number of books goes higher.
I just read their website. It sounds good.
Since both of them publish from the author's own PDF file, the base language may not matter.
