Need an advance paperback of your book?

Do you want to order advance review paperbacks of your novel, but don’t want an ugly PROOF stamp across the front cover? Or, are you considering a special paperback (or hardcover) edition of your novel?

KDP’s print options require a book to be listed for sale before you can order author copies, but Barnes and Noble has an awesome solution that I’ve been really happy with. Check out my video walkthrough below, which show you how to set up your book on their site and order author copies (it only takes 5 minutes to set up and 24-48 hours for approval!). The book can be listed for sale, or kept private.

To start, visit press.barnesandnoble.com.

Some things to know… you’ll pay about a dollar more per book than KDP Print, but the quality is great and it’s one of your only options if you’re looking for this sort of off-sale printing. Also, less shipping delays and bad batches of books than KDP.
