Judine Slaughter

Why do I, Judine Slaughter, PhD, prefer alternate publishing instead of pursuing a traditional publisher?

The reasons are four-fold:

One: I don’t want to spend a lot of money.

I'm always looking for the cheapest way to publish – one in which I can pay for goods or services in small increments instead of one lump sum payment. Alternate publishing affords me this opportunity. 

Two: I call the shots.

For marketing my products, I have written book reviews and called the shots on how I want to write them. There are essential book review criteria, but for the most part, I have used my creativity to write whatever I have in mind.

Three: I am a fourth-generation entrepreneur.

My parents raised me to believe I could do anything I set my mind to. My thoughts about myself were the only obstacles in my path. After using alternate publishing for several books, I am convinced alternate publishing is only as hard as you think. 

Four: I like being in charge.

As an alternate publisher, I manage my time, resources, and temper. I set up a system for spending time with the family, budgeting my paycheck to pay the bills already accumulated, and learning to manage my email etiquette.  

Let us help you write to publish.
