Main » For Sale: One Book
I paid for printing today; that kind of makes it "real".
I also enrolled in Amazon's Advantage program, and opened the site up to pre-ordering. We've decided on a cheaper price on our site than on Amazon, as they take 55% (eek!) of the profits.
So we're in the home-stretch; I should have books in my hand by March 25th. Exciting, but kind of scary at the same time.

My name is Jon Kolko, and I'm an Interaction Designer. I teach at the Savannah College of Art and Design.
I'm writing a book about Interaction Design theory. It deals with issues like linguistics, and metaphor, and the relationships between theory and practice. I don't know if the book is any good, but it sure felt good to write it.
I'm self-publishing the book through a company I've formed called Brown Bear LLC. I've never published a book, or written a book, or started a company before; this is all a large experiment. And this site is a quasi-chronicle of the development of the company and the work.

I would like to know more about the printing process. How did you find the publisher? How much do they charge? How many do you have to order? What other options did you look at?
(You hinted at India, what happened?)
I'd like more meat, please.
