Unlike Lulu, once you have uploaded your files to CreateSpace, you do NOT immediately have the capability to order a copy of your work. Once you have submitted your files, you receive an email confirmation that states the following: “Thank you for submitting your book. We will review your files and book information and notify you of the results via email shortly, typically within 24-48 hours.”

I was first introduced to CreateSpace in 2007. Once my book, Stealing Wishes, was eliminated from the semifinals for the first Amazon ABNA contest, I was given my consolation prize which was a CreateSpace membership and the ability to publish and order a free copy of my book. I chose not to do this at that time and published the book with Lulu instead. But ever since we here at LLBR decided to add CreateSpace books to our review portfolio, I thought it would be a good experience to create something with CreateSpace and learn more about this company.

Although our new blog has been up and running for two weeks now, June 1st was our original target date for all of this to happen. But I have to thank LK and Dan, my fellow reviewers, for making this all happen so quickly. I haven’t come across anyone yet who hasn’t liked the changes we made. The feedback from our guest book has all been positive. But I still wanted to take a moment to explain why we made these changes. I’d also like to point out some of the advantages our new blog presents to its readers.

We begin February with the Superbowl on Sunday. So what, right?
Writers can kick off the month by entering Amazon.com’s ABNA (Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award) contest on Monday, the 2nd. For those who are regulars to the blog, you might remember my November post about ABNA.
