With so many new writers participating in the process of making books, it's natural that there is confusion about the roles of printers and publishers. Who does what? Many people come in to The Troy Book Makers assuming we will comment on their content, or have a vested interest in the number of books they sell. Not so! Printers and publishers serve different functions. Here are a few key differences: Printers print. Printers have machines on premise that print the actual book, then bind and trim them. Publishers don't. Printers make their money from printing and binding, not from sales of your book. Publishers have a more vested interest in how many of your books sell. They get a cut! Printers don't distribute or warehouse your book. Publishers do. For self-publishers, the author is responsible for receiving the print run, determining a sales and marketing strategy, having a place where customers can purchase the book (either online or physical location), and then fulfilling orders (envelopes and postage). Publishers, on the other hand, have relationships with distributors and warehouses, each of whom gets paid by the publisher for services performed. Printers do not assume responsibility for content. Printers are ready to print! Publishers, however, can take 3, 6, 12 months--or longer--before they are done reviewing, copyediting, designing, and preparing your manuscript for print. There are standards (grammatical and content-based) their books are expected to maintain. For example, a publisher might hire a copy editor to ensure that the text grammatically adheres to a certain style, say The Chicago Manual of Style. The publisher pays for this service. It's part of their process, and also part of the reason authors will see a smaller percentage of the cover price. And finally, because some printers (like The Troy Book Makers) cater primarily to self-publishers, they also offer an array of services, which differentiates them from the local print shop that does posters, flyers, and brochures. Services may include an ISBN and barcode, marketing or copyediting services, even preparation of your files for e-readers. It is definitely a more crowded landscape, so think about what it is you want to accomplish as an author and/ or self-publisher, do your research, consider your budget, and best of luck achieving your goals!

Yesterday, incoming RPI freshmen were busy touring downtown Troy, and several groups stopped by to see how we make books. Our last group had a few hams, so we got them to pose making hand shadows. Hand shadows? Well, they're from our historic reprint of Henry Bursill's 1859 book, Hand Shadows to be Thrown upon the Wall.

Good news! Publishers Weekly has just announced they will begin reviewing self-published books in a quarterly supplement called PW Select. The first one is scheduled to appear in December. From the article:

Titles submitted for our first supplement must have been published in 2010 and have a valid ISBN. We will not accept manuscripts or e-books (this time). Only final bound galleys or finished books will be accepted. Books cannot be returned; once finished the copies are donated to Housing Works Thrift Shop, a worthy local charity. Please, please send your book in a bio-sensitive package (i.e., no bubble wrap or plastic envelopes). Also, please use packaging appropriate to the book you are submitting: no boxes full of packing peanuts or paper stuffing. We recommend reusable and recycled paper envelopes. An acknowledgment of the book's arrival will be issued via e-mail upon receipt.

A Friend Writes: It was a hot, dry day in Printer's Gulch. Slatch Greems sat on the front porch of The Painted Lady Bookstore, thumbing through a weathered copy of the Chicago Manual of Style. He was trying to figure out how to cite an article in a multivolume work with more than one editor, but the heat made it hard to concentrate, and his attention kept wandering to the latest edition of Best American Essays, which he'd bought a few weeks ago but hadn't had the energy to pick up. Maybe tonight, he thought. His friend Slim Folio sat beside him, humming tunelessly and sharpening a red pencil with a rusted pocket-knife. The street was deserted. There hadn't been any patrons at the Painted Lady in three days. The books in the front window were looking faded and worn, and a thin layer of dust seemed to have settled over the entire town. "When's that new shipment of trade paperbacks comin' in?" Slim asked. He hadn't read a page of literary fiction since a used bookseller had come riding through town a few weeks ago with a box of old issues of the New Yorker, and he was starting to get restless. Slatch looked up. He could see a cloud of dust in the distance, beyond the edge of town. "Don't know. Maybe that's them now." The two friends watched as a group of riders came into view, and behind them a wagon being hauled by a team of horses. As the group came closer they could see that, instead of the usual pallet of books, the wagon held a sleek, white machine about the size of a small Xerox. The riders themselves were lean and hard-looking, though, and Slatch could almost hear the leather of their dusters creaking in the heat. Their horses were thin and flecked with sweat, as though they'd been ridden hard for days. Slatch's eyes narrowed. "Don't look now, Slim, but them self-publishing boys is back...."
