Barnes & Noble Launches PubIt!

By Jason Boog 

Barnes & Noble has entered the self-publishing realm with the official launch of PubIt!. We shared the original announcement back in May, but now the tools are available for authors to use.

Here’s more from eBookNewser: “Using PubIt!, publishers can price their titles between $0.99 and $199.99. For those eBooks priced from $2.99-$9.99, publishers will receive 65 percent of the list price for sold content. For those priced at $2.98 or less, or $10.00 or more, publishers receive 40 percent of the list price. Newly submitted content will be available for sale within 24-72 hours after it is uploaded.”

We’ll be reporting on self-publishing stories all week, supporting our ongoing Book Pitch contest. Earlier today, we shared local marketing and book pitch advice at the Self-Publishing Book Expo.
