    Are you trying to self publish? If that's the case, than no, there's no publisher that offers self publishing that won't ask for a form of payment.

    Smashwords will publish your ebook for free (be sure to read the set-up manual), but you have to be the main marketer to get it sold.

    Sorry for the delay on this post!

    Yes, I am looking for publishing.

    Alty, I am looking for something like lulu, or something. Also, I am not talking about ones that require payments from paypal and stuff, but I am talking about the ones that want to pay you through paypal.

    Okay thanks Wondergirl, is there any you know for paperback books, and such?

    Amazon will do a paperback, but does ask for a couple of hundred dollars for processing.

    I think all the freebie sites are e-books only. Once you want paper involved, there's a cost to pay for materials.

    There are publisher software packages that will allow you to create your own book, make a nice cover, and print it all out, so you pay for the software and the paper. Adobe's InDesign* is one such package.

    *This is what many self-publishers who charge money use to produce books.
