Aaarrrgh!

Argh!  Lulu, not only do you slap £5 on the price, but then you tell me I can't get the 'published by Lulu' option because I don't live in the USA.  And *then* you only give me a button to buy the option I can't have, and no way to buy the option I *can* have, which is strangely and coincidentally on special offer today.

You're just lucky I can't get to you with a crowbar, that's all I'm saying!

It might be the effect of the cold medicine that is making my mind all loopy, but what is Lulu? I have seen it mentioned on LJ before, but I am still confuzzled as in what it is.

Lulu is a self-publishing company, where you can upload your manuscript and your cover images, and the site will format them to be printed on demand. Then if you buy a distribution package they will also send your book out to be listed on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, so that people can buy it through bookshops.

Have a look on lulu.com :) It seems like a great idea, but I'm finding all the drawbacks now!

Thanks.

I need to add that to my options now that I basically have the rough finished for my first novel.

Good idea! And I'll do an instruction leaflet once I've finished the process so that no one else has to go through the hair-pulling frustration of the thing :)
