Publishing Options

The publishing world is complex and confusing, but here at SOOP, we’ve made it as simple and approachable as possible. Built to address the issues in the traditional versus self-publishing split, SOOP offers authors the resources and guidance needed to get published and achieve success as they define it. We call our approach author-driven publishing. In the SOOP model, the author ultimately decides between the many variations encountered on the path to publishing. Along the way, they are free to change their minds and adjust course to settle on the right path for them. Our model supports both of the following options:

OPTION 1: PUBLISHING WITH SOOP
