I'm a Malaysian teenager and I would like to publish a book independently.
I did a small scale one with 'Project:alle' but my band has come up with a musical system that we feel could be rather marketable. In other words, I want to write a music-related book and sell it independently. And I want it to be professionally binded.
That aside, I'll only need to print a 100 copies at most. Probably only half that, if things don't look too well.
Can someone please point me to the right direction? Maybe give me the number of someone who's willing to publish on such a small scale. Thanks in advance. My personal e-mail is linkinwayne@msn.com but it's probably better to just message me at 0166332898.

And as a sidenote, Linear Equation, my band, is holding auditions to fill up the band spaces before recording our second studio album. Kindly contact me for further details. We're looking for a drummer, a rhythm guitarist and a vocalist.

If you want to do it on the cheap, I'd suggest you sell it as an ebook or PDF instead. It'd be cheaper because the cost of printing 100 copies of a book, essentially vanity publishing, would be very expensive.

But if your book really is marketable, why not look at finding an actual publisher who might take it? For resources, try looking through Sharon Bakar's blog, thebookaholic.blogspot.com. She mentioned a few publishers there who perhaps could be interested.
