: Re: Is it worth spending money on a subsidy publisher? The boss owes me about 000, and is going to pay me in the coming months. I can live without this money for now, but I'm wondering

If you want to spread knowledge to a wider audience then write better and find the right agent.

If your book contains knowledge that is as valuable as you say it is and you aren't getting a positive response from agents, the issue is either in your writing or in the agents. If the agents you have contacted have provided you with any feedback at all, have you incorporated it? If you haven't even gotten feedback, that's a strong sign that you really need to work to improve your writing.

Even if your book were to be published by a traditional publishing house it still has to be good enough for people to want to read it.

Rather than vanity or even self-publishing, keep polishing.

My advice especially stands if this is the online published work from your earlier, closed question. That work needs significant format editing as well as to interact with existing scholarship which it currently seems totally ignore.
