Peace All *_^There are some fantastic tools out there for publishing that continue to amaze.Everything we need to publish, layout, design and etc is available in at least a free form that can help us create quality content. I'll try to update the list below often.Digital writing tools/resources:Issuu.com (publish your zines, comics, magazines, portfolios and etc and embed in your site as pageturning previews or full reads).Sumo.fi (edit your images with a free online equivalent to adobe photoshop, or Gimp)formatpixel.com (C'Bs Alife Allah told me about this one) Format your zines, chapbooks, and other publications online.textnovel.com (publish text novels in serial form to develop a relationship with your audience, offer excerpts, or allow your readers to watch you create a work piece by piece- There is also a reward of 1000.00 for those chosen to publish with the company- You maintain your publishing rights unless you sign them over)Createspace it turns out is risky.I recommend Qoop.com or wordclay.com for print on demand publishing instead.Magcloud.com is a great resource publishing your zines (Hp has a hand in this company, and they plan to print books as a POD soon as well).www.toolkitzone.com (Create a game that you can customize levels and graphics for)sxc.hu (Enjoy free high-quality photostock)PODvoiceofexperience at gmail.comMr. Hammes is a VERY professional gentleman offering .pdf distilling and other services.Prices are extremely reasonable and turnaround is quick.He comes highly recommended.fontstruct.com (Create fonts or find unique fonts and request designer permission to use them)1001freefonts.com (A great free font resource)Elance.com (You can hire needed personnel to work on a project in a number of fields or find freelance gigs for yourself)AssociatedContent.com (This site pays so-so, usually 20 beans at most for an article they collect full rights to, half of that or less for partial rights- but it's a good way to build your brand (name), and connect with readers if inclined--- They didn't pay for fiction last I checked but they do publish it)There is sooooooooo much more out there.I hope these will be of great use.If you know of any others that can benefitthis community drop them in the comments .Shine Brilliantly Stars-PZ
