Proof Copies for Print Books

I have been self-publishing since 201.  E-Books on Kindle is easier to publish than Print books.  I have been using Createspace  since 2011. 

I always order a Proof Copy of the Print Copy so I can hold it and see what it exactly what the book looks like.  You can review it on the computer.  I order a copy.  I paid $2.15 plus shipping and handling, under ten dollars. 

Then If I want to make changes I can and repeat the process over again. 



I used this cover for my print Version of Write and Publish Your Zombie Apocalypse Story
It is in E-Book Format 


I am in the process of putting all my E-Books into Print.


This is the first Episode of Me Vs Zombies  Zombies On Board  Print

Something about holding a book in my hands.  I like it rather than the kindle, but times are changing and I am trying to adjust.

I realize that kindle starting to do print books.  Right now you can get your book in print, but you can not order print books or order copies at a discount, to sell them on your own at book signing for wherever or just to give them away for promotion.

I read that they will phase out Createspace once Kindle gets their up and running.  I like createspace because I learned how to do it, now I will have to learn how to do it on Kindle, which I will.
l
For now I will stay with Createspace until I have to move over to Kindle. 

Do you have books in Print?  What is stopping you from doing so?
