Owanle you're stylishly avoiding this Ibere gan...lol

No be so oo owanlen

LMay:
I suggest that you publish on Okadabooks. It is indigenous and you won't lose so much to tax.

You can also publish on Amazon to reach a wider audience.

Cheers!

Much thanks for your advice..publishing on okada tomorrow..watch out folks..

@Gaby, this is for you.

Your story is interesting. I have read it all.

Now this is my input as a self published Author on Amazon and all the other self publishing platforms including prints on demand places.

First the covers. This one here is Okay. Better than the second. Will outsell the second by over 5x. Trust me on this.

The guy who did the cover is good. I will like to work with him and offer him some direction that will greatly assist him. Going to try and reach out to him. Hope he responds.

You can publish with Okadabooks for the Nigerian audience like I see you are already planning. As advised, try to get a lawyer to advice you and read through the contract with Okadabooks. For the Okada version, you can use a Nigerian name. It does not have to be your real name. Pen names are very common and acceptable in the publishing arena.

You can use the American name for the Amazon / International version.

Don't just limit your book to Amazon. That would be leaving money on the table.
You can sign up and publish the book via the link below: It is free to do so. And takes minutes to do.

D2D will do the following for you.

They will publish your book on the platforms below:

iBooks (Apple books)
Barnes & Noble
Kobo
Playster
Scribd
Tolino
24Symbols
OverDrive

They will put your book on all these platform and only take 10% of your Royalty and pay you the balance. Believe me, this is cool. You can even make more through them than Amazon.

After you publish your first book, do not stop. Write other books. You can do Non Fiction and How to books. I see you got the talent of a Writer and will do well.

My 2 cents. Hope this helps.

Got this from D2D:

Hello,

In a non-US country that doesn't have a tax treaty with the USA, you'd have a 30% rate of tax withholding on your ebooks.

Our vendors that sell the book will keep approximately 30%, we keep approximately 10%, and you receive the remaining 60% back to you in royalties earned, however, as a non-US citizen, you'd only receive 30% (the other 30% is provided to the IRS in US Taxes. A $1 ebook would net you $0.30 in sales. A $5 ebook would net you approximately $1.50 in royalties earned.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Best Regards,

Tara

I've gone and read through D2D and yes they'll publish on the partner sites you listed so long as you ticked those,their commission is 15% for publishing on their sites and another 30% as with holding tax for non US publishers..I'm sure there are other taxes too...

Thats what i understood from their t&c's,you might want to put me through some more seeing you must have been publishing with them.
thanks

Ladybianca:

Then don't let the title be one-sided.
'Deserts and Seas' or just remove the "deserts" and use another captivating title altogher

Mustiboy:
you shouldn't have replied him. Simply ignoring him would have pained him in the butts. Perhaps make him commit suicide.
U seem to not know how it hurts one not to be noticed.

My bad....apologies

flyca:
Topic says "through the desert". You put water abi na ocean picture and write really long sermon on top
Repent! Lol

Journey was a mix of both channels...

omoelerin1:
That op knew what he wanted to do before creating this thread, in the first instance. He only created the thread on NL to advertise and create an awareness concerning his about-to-be- published book.
Can't you see how business speculators flood this thread, swam around him because of what they will get?

This thread is a scam. The person that created it, the OP, is an unrepentant scammer who find it difficult to turn a new leaf contrary to his claim.

Olodo oshi...of all you could take out from the stories na this curse you decide to inherit for you and your entire lineage...asswipe

Ifedoyinmola:

Lol sorry o...

Pretty well informative...much thanks...will peruse through all and make a final decision.

You are appreciated bro.

uchbaba:
such an interesting tale, Gaby make a hard copy of the book not just digital, wanna get it...also plz whenever u sell the right, I want to be among the acting crews, am a dedicated actor, I did love to be part of this story plz, will get in touch with u on whatsapp

No wahala bro

[quote author=Rikon post=66355404][/quote]You'll read about that and more in the book

flyca:
Gaby, my little input is this - why did you use the name Peterson Ojieson? Is that your real name? Please I suggest you use your real African names. Africa is our pride. It won't be fair that when your book hits a global audience, the intending readers can't pin-point where the author is from.

And also many years from now, your name can open many doors for your children, who knows. My friend Helen Achebe once told us of a time the Achebe name open a hard door for her even though she was not in any way related to Chinua Achebe

Pls reconsider.

Ok sir

hidhrhis:
Gaby u really suffered a lot but dis ur own sufferness dey learn work for my own side here
