Harlequin Horizons So-called vanity press misleadingly claims popular authors started out self-published

I contacted this vanity press to inquire about services.

The saleswoman falsely claimed that two popular authors had started out in selfpublishing. One of the names she listed was JK Rowling. The saleswoman insisted that Rowling had gotten her start in self-publishing after having her book rejected by a number of other publishers.

After I got on the phone with her, I decided to check it out. According to JK Rowling's website, the Harry Potter books were not self-published. They were bought by a small publisher in Europe and then by another publisher in the United States.

If this publisher is going to use big names to convince writers to self-publish, it's very misleading to use inaccurate stories.

I did some more research and I want to urge caution to any individual interested in using their services. They call themselves a self-publisher, but please do not be fooled. With self-publishing, once the author pays the fees upfront, the author then pockets all the profits, yet this publisher takes half of any money you make. Some research into this vanity press could likely save you a lot of time and money.
