There are people out there who want to take as much money from authors as possible and offer little in exchange.

You would be wise to walk away from any publisher (or agent) who asks you to pay them money.
Whatever publishing route you take, books won't sell if the public is not aware they exist. You must promote them and again, you may be at risk of being scammed here. More details on the next scam warning page the many promotion scams.
If you find these pages useful you can return the favour by downloading a FREE ebook from Amazon - even if you don't read it, it will help our rankings! I think you'll probably like it though.
It's the first book of a series of 9 books (so far) which tell the story of how life on Earth was saved from a cataclysmic extinction when a rogue planetoid collides with Earth in 7141. This first book deals with how humanity was made immortal, giving us the incentive to do something about an event so far in the future.
Take a touch of humour, add some genetic science and nanotechnology. Steep with conspiracy and stir in murder and despair. Season with romance between three people in a secret location. Garnish with morality.
The result is 'Immortality Gene', the first in a novel series by John and Shelia Chapman. The ebook of book 1 is FREE and available at multiple retailers
