We have, I believe 3 people here writing their new books.(Yaaa! ) Also we have a few people here that would like to get started writing their own book.

Could you experienced folks that have written books give some pointers? :o)

For instance:

  • How to get a publisher?
  • Proof reading?
  • Editing and more.



We all have a gift to share to the world, but some of us don't know who we can trust, to help us in this journey. Many, many thanks! Perry

The first thing I would say is that you should write because you want to record or share something, not with the hope of making money....because you very probably won't. Set your expectations so they are achievable and everything else will be a bonus.

I published my 2 books on Lulu and then I also published "Bereavement Rescue" on Amazon Kindle.

For Lulu, you just need to be able to create a pdf of the right size and make a book cover (you can even just use one of their book cover templates if you aren't good with graphics).

For Amazon Kindle, you ideally need to be able to produce your book in html. You can use their document converters and it is worth a try if you aren't comfortable working with html, but you will get a better and more controllable result if you work in html.

There is also a print on demand facility that works with the main Amazon store (https://www.createspace.com/). I am working on getting Bereavement Rescue on to the main Amazon using that, as I don't want to invest in printing advance copies.

All the above is the self-publishing route. I don't know a lot about the publisher route. What I did find with it is that there are a lot of places that present themselves as publishers, but the deal ends up costing the author money - so they are effective vanity-publishers. If you are going to take that route, then I would instead use things like Lulu, Kindle and Create Space that shouldn't cost you money.

Yes! We think alike! Alot of people can't afford to buy a book. Free is the answer! God will Bless Us!

Welcome to NDE-Space!  Did you have a Near Death Experience? We would love to hear about it! Our goal at NDE-Space is to recreate and share that gift of love and peace we so blessedly received. We believe we are each a peace of a bigger puzzle and only united will we see the bigger picture. . We welcome and encourage all people of all backgrounds, nationalities, countries, and religions to read and participate on the web site. This site was started by Glauco Schaffer. Glauco had a Near Life Experience at age 8 along with his 2 brothers Marco and Carlon Schaffer due to a drowning. Anyone can join us!  It's a blessing to know we never die! We must persevere / suicide is no answer: Only God decides when a person has matured for eternity.

Nearly ten thousand people die everyday in the United States, the majority of this deaths occurring in urban environments. As such, a resident of a metropolis might encounter up to 1.7 people per day who will be deceased by day's end. -North American Statistics Institute. On everage, they are 774 Near Death Experiences (NDEs) per day in the US, during which a person is prenounced dead and encounters a blinding, white light before being resuscitated.-National Center for Mortality Studies.

 What is it?
