Low risk and cheap publishing
By far the easiest and lowest risk way to publish a book. For anyone wanting to become a published author but doesn't want the hassle and cost that comes with going with a big company then I would highly suggest publishing through Lulu

Simple, Fast, and Super Easy!
Lulu made it so easy to print and publish my books! Not only was the entire process communicated well, but my book was delivered three days before they said it would be, making it a really happy surprise for me

Really like the range of book sizes at an affordable price for an indie author and illustrator like me. Easy to order and the books always arrive in secure recyclable packaging. Inks are true and the paper is just what my graphic novel needed.

Exceptional Results!
I just published my second book using LuLu's exceptional services. The process was easy, and they offer links to editing and technical assistance you can get if you need them. Book layout and cover we're exactly as I'd envisioned. Working on my third project now, and I'll be back!

Selected and Collected
I have used Lulu to produce several revisions of two books, and the experience has been very good. The publishing process allows an author to upload, revise, proof, and refine a book until the printed result is right. The online preview tools are useful, and the finished books have matched my expectations very closely. Print quality, binding, and especially the glossy cover reproduction have been excellent. Lulu has made it practical for an independent author to turn a Word manuscript into a professional-looking physical book without having to order hundreds of copies. I particularly appreciate being able to order individual proofs while continuing to improve the work.

Satisfied time after time
Over the years I have used Lulu for nine different books. For all of them I had a very limited number of copies produced. I received all in perfect condition and exactly as I expected them to be. I have recommended Lulu to others wishing to publish books.

It's been a pleasure working with Lulu
It's been a pleasure working with Lulu. Very straightforward, user-friendly, and efficient. I've even created a tutorial on my YouTube page for the self-publishing authors, and personally helped two other authors getting started on Lulu. They love it too!

My first experience wasn't good
My first experience wasn't good. The proof book showed errors that weren't visible online. Some of the interior text was faint eg. Chapters and although the cover looked correct online, the proof showed unacceptable white spaces around the edges of the book. The printing machine wasn't properly aligned. I asked for refunds for two books and my request was declined. The final outcome after I made changes to the interior was spot on and although I made no changes to the cover, someone on your side made the correct adjustment. The third proof was acceptable so it was approved and is now on sale in the Lulu Bookstore.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are sorry that your first proofs did not meet your expectations, and we understand how frustrating it must have been to encounter issues that were not apparent before ordering.
We are glad to hear that the adjustments to your interior and cover resulted in an acceptable third proof, and that your book is now available in the Lulu Bookstore. We appreciate your patience throughout the proofing process and your willingness to work with us to get the final result right.
