Today, we honor the Buffalo Soldiers—the courageous African American men who served in the U.S. Army after the Civil War, paving the way for generations of Black service members.

Formed in 1866, these soldiers faced discrimination, harsh conditions, and dangerous missions—but they served with honor, bravery, and resilience.

Their legacy reminds us that patriotism knows no color and that true heroes often fight two battles: one for their country and one for equality.

Let us remember, reflect, and share their story.

: How do I price my book?

To determine the best pricing strategy for a book, considering more than just production costs, is crucial. Factors like genre, binding, page count, and author reputation play significant roles. Genre influences price drastically, with business books commanding higher prices than young adult novels. Hardcover books are generally more expensive than paperbacks. Larger books with higher page counts require higher printing costs, affecting the price point. Well-known authors can demand higher prices due to their notoriety, while lesser-known authors may benefit from lower prices to attract readers. Finding the right balance involves researching similar titles published in recent years to identify an ideal price range tailored to the specific book.

: What is "Print-on-Demand"?

Print on demand (POD) is a printing technology and business process in which book copies are not printed until the company receives an order. This allows the author to have books distributed through large distributors (such as Amazon) and that distributor or the author does not need to have large numbers of copies of the books. This is perfect for small businesses or authors who don't want to be in the distribution business - it let's the big distributors do the work. However, they want a cut of the profit, so be aware.
