    Karate book funds
    Hi there, I have recently written a book on Karate in general and I had a meeting with the publisher the other day and it was all good news apart from 1 thing, I somehow need to get £3000 in funds that will benefit this, anyone got any ideas how I can raise these funds?

    Rather than going this route, I suggest self-publishing your book through either Lulu or CreateSpace. Both will provide help with marketing your book, and will print copies on demand so there's none of this 3000 pounds up front business.

    Yes, what are you going to get for the money ? Have you talked to other publishing houses.

    There is so much fraud in the publishing business, have you checked out the publisher you are talking to
