Finding a "Real" Lulu

I mostly explored the site lulu.com, which specializes in assitance with self-publishing and online marketing. As a person interested in books, I also naturally have an interest in writing and publishing. In past years, I've attempted to get some of what I've written published. However, the writing market is competitive, and it's hard to crack into the world of being a published author. As time has gone on, and the potential of the World Wide Web has increased, I believe that sites such as Lulu will enable little-known writers to publish and share their work without the hassle of soliciting big-time publication companies.

And, since I'm in the business of quotes, I thought I'd quote a quote from the Lulu community itself:

"Lulu.com's goal is to be a global marketplace for our users and letting the community decided the best sellers. Our hope has been to have 1 million users that sell 10 books instead of 10 authors that sell 1 million books -so far over the past five years, we're on the right track."
