Dear Professor:
As a teacher, I am most effective when I develop
my own materials tailored to my students’ needs—does
that describe you too?
Only one year ago, I was trying to publish
a textbook, and it seemed almost impossible. Then last fall I opened
an e-mail from Professor Textbook, and everything changed. Professor
Textbook offered self-publishing services that made an overwhelming
process suddenly accessible.
Though Professor Textbook was new at that time,
its parent company Dog Ear Publishing had been around for years.
It didn’t take much research to find out that Dog Ear was
among only a few select publishers that were ranked outstanding.
Their mission is unique: authors work with experts in the field,
retaining the rights to their intellectual property and receiving
100 percent of the royalties to their work.
Professor Textbook not only produces my books
but also lists them with major distributors and on Amazon. Anyone
in the world can order my books with only the click of a button;
Professor Textbook prints them on demand, collects payment, and
ships them out. Now I’m free to do what I love best—teach
and write.
With Professor Textbook, once your book is
finished, you can use it with your own students or market it to
a broader audience, if you choose. Though marketing may sound daunting,
Professor Textbook provides support with that also. And let’s
face it, e-commerce now allows anyone to reach a vast audience with
minimum effort and cost.
What is most important, though, is that Professor
Textbook helps teachers give students access to high quality books
that are cost effective. If you are developing your own materials,
you are one of those passionate teachers who has something special
to offer. Why not author your own textbook?
Best regards,
Dona J. Young
