You’re Published . . . almost!

This screen is also self-explanatory. Before you do anything, bookmark it because it has some important links that you may need later.

Lulu requires you to publish a copy of your book before you make it available to the public. This is so you can check for copy editing mistakes as well as typos within your manuscript. Go ahead and purchase your copy. Unless you’re in a hurry, I’d go for the standard shipping, which can take anywhere from 1-3 weeks.

Once your book arrives, check each page. If everything looks okay, you’re set to buy your Distribution service, if that’s what you choose. If not, then you’ll have to make the necessary corrections, and then start the revising process. This could mean uploading the corrected manuscript and/or the cover.
