Createspace.com was a great experience for me at least. You need to have the ability to PDF the book. They step you through the process of uploading the cover, spine, and exterior design, and you can do that right on the site. Then they walk you through uploading the inside of the book itself, setting the price, your profit margin (and they take into consideration their costs and profit for you). You choose the finished book size (mine was 6 x 9 trade paperback). They will email you if anything is off spec or won't print right. You can modify files and re-upload. When it meets with their mechanical criteria, they notify you when a proof is mailed to you. You OK that proof online, and it's then available for purchase on their website. It takes around a week to appear on Amazon.com. Hope this helps!
Most cookbooks can't really be "reviewed" but mine is different. No only are the recipes simple and the ingredients commonly found in most kitchens but I also offer ingredient change suggestions, tips and stories about the dishes.
Thank you for reading my review from Rita.

Hi Hajni!
Thanks for your comment. I thought it would be a much more exciting time than it is. But I don't know if my bubble got burst by so much negative publicity about the publishing company, or even the work that was done on my book. I still have yet to sell my first copy. Perhaps its just too expensive for these days ant times. I don't know. Your page is pretty exciting, seems like you are a very busy person. I'm not lucky enough to be busy with my writing "career" just yet, as I have been very busy with children and dogs lately. I hope that we will become fast friends.
