Undoubtedly, some of this stuff is advertorial, but you can get a sense
of what is involved.
One comment, speaking as a publishing industry pro:
Book publishing is an old industry. We solved most of our technical
problems decades or centuries ago. Modern innovations are improvements
that lead to savings in time, energy, money, and environment control.
The ONE BIG PROBLEM is distribution. That problem cannot be solved
simply by introducing new technology, though the Internet helps us a lot.
Thus, when evaluating any publishing strategy, you need to ask yourself,
how will this book be distributed?
In other words, how will people find out about it? How will they receive
it? How will they pay for it?
Best wishes with your project,
Denyse
