The Book Making Processes

 I have selected for YOU MY MISSING UNIQUE DAELING two samples. Both are easy to understand and to memorize. So read them both and choose the one YOU like.

Sample I

After the authors write and edit their story several times, they take it to a publishing company to get it published. The publisher begins with a book proposal from the author. A book proposal describes and outlines the main ideas of the proposed book and the reason that the author thinks the marketplace needs the book. The book proposal also includes a comprehensive table of contents, a formal introduction, and a completed first chapter. In general there are eight steps for evaluating book proposals before being published these steps are as follows:

• The author completes the Contributor Guidelines and returns it to the acquisitions editor.
• The acquisitions editor reviews the book proposal and assesses its appropriateness for ASTD’s audience.
• If the acquisitions editor considers the book to be appropriate, the acquisitions editor will work with the author to refine and more directly target the proposal if needed.
• The acquisitions editor presents the author’s completed proposal to an internal committee and makes the case for pursuing the book idea.
• If the internal committee agrees, the acquisitions editor sends the proposal to both internal and external subject matter experts and to the publisher review committee for comment on the proposal.
• If these experts return a positive report, the acquisitions editor will ask the author to address any suggested changes to the proposal and submit a final book proposal.
• Upon acceptance of this final book proposal, the acquisitions editor will contract with the author to write the book.
• The printing and selling of the book to the audiences remains the last step of its making process. Authors and publishers in this final stage can sell books directly to consumers or they can reach consumers through a series of distributors known as resellers.

Sample II

After the authors write and edit their story several times, they take it to a publishing company to get it published. But not all books get published right away, some companies turn down the story because it was too short or they think it won’t be good enough to be sold in bookstores and other places. When a book is accepted, the company puts it on a special machine to be printed and on a different machine to have the cover made and bound to the book.
Then, when everything is good and ready to be sold, the new books are shipped to bookstores or sometimes translated into a different language so kids and adults can read the same book in their own language. Then the authors get paid when their book is successful and is bought all over the world.

Book Distribution

Authors and publishers can sell books directly to consumers or they can reach consumers through a series of distributors known as resellers. There are three basic types of resellers in the book trade:

1. Retailers sell books to consumers. Typical book retailers include online bookstores like Amazon.com, retail (physical) bookstores, chain stores, and specialty stores. Some retailers do advertising, usually for bestsellers and books from big-name authors, but the author and publisher bear most of the responsibility for generating demand from consumers.

2. Distributors market books on behalf of the publishers they represent. They typically have sales representatives, or at least a catalog, and actively solicit orders from libraries, bookstores and other retailers. Some distributors specialize in a particular market (like libraries) or a particular type of book. Distributors may warehouse and ship books on behalf of the publisher.

Distributors are often used by small to mid-sized publishers who do not want to maintain an in-house sales staff. Some of the larger book distributors include Independent Publishers Group, Midpoint Trade Books, and National Book Network. See this page for more information about book distributors.

3. Wholesalers (also called jobbers) usually do no marketing—they simply receive and process orders from libraries and retailers. The publisher or distributor is responsible for generating demand. However, some wholesalers offer collection development services to libraries, and some offer advertising opportunities to publishers.
