Does anyone know about a new publisher called Creativia? They have offered to re-publish a children's book for me, There is no cost on my part, obviously no advance but decent royalties,....but I have some doubts. One is the fact they want to use the old cover, but-to my mind-to give the book a fresh look, an updated cover is needed. Paperback is POD, which is another problem as booksellers want to send back unsold copies. Okay, I have no problem paying for copies for school visits. I also believe they are based in Finland, another problem as I believe in face to face discussions.

Will they be able to get your book into the bookshops, if so which ones?
A lot of independent publishers are POD these days to keep the cost down. This doesn't mean they won't be promoting your book.
I'd ask a few more questions, but be optimistic.
Local newpapers and radio interview is something you have to arrange your self as are book signings etc. Good luck with this whatever you decide.
Do let usk know.
