Independent authors....Please be aware of some self publishing companies.
I know some of you use POD companies and one to stay away from is Raider
Publishing.
MANY have had issues, paying Raider for their service and not getting anything in return. There has been frequent turnaround in staff, money going missing, promises not kept and most of all no royalties being paid.
Think carefully where you are going to spend your money or be patient and I am sure you will find the right publisher who will except your book without having to pay for it.
The company seems to rely on your payment to get your book published but it doesn't. Your money goes to them and nothing else happens. You do not receive copies of your book (as promised) and neither do you see anything else happening with it. The turnaround of staff is extraordinary and never will you have the same person assisting you with any queries or problems. When you do have a question, either they answer you after 2 months or they don't answer you at all.
4 people in the past month have written to me to say thay have paid Raider to publish their book - 2 years ago and till this day nothing has happened; no royalties, no copies of books and no information sent to them regarding the stats of sales.
Please, do not waste your money as I have had a number of people emailing me to complain. I also have found a number of sites on the web stating the problems others have had with them.
RAIDER PUBLISHERS ---BE AWARE
