    Jun 22 2012: You can check out bookbaby.com. I know your funds are limited but it is one way.
  • Jun 19 2012: Amazon and Smashwords will "publish" it for free with minimal effort on your part. (I tried to get published for 14 years with 14 books; no luck at all. Finally put my books on Amazon and Smashwords. They're still not selling, but at least they're "out there", not just sitting in my computer. There are probably other internet publishing possibilities; google them and see where it gets you. Best wishes!

    Jun 12 2012: For information on a question like this- how to promote your work or to get your work in front of someone who might promote it for you, I would look to internet forums for writers.. There are forums like writersdigest, writingforums... there are so many you will find from a search if you do one.
    On writing forums there will typically be threads in which aspiring writers discuss matters such as this and their experiences in marketing their work or trying to get it published.
    There are also sites that guide you in self-publishing. If you self-publish an ebook, for example, you can get it on amazon pretty easily, I think. amazon won't put resources into promoting your work for you, but it would be available to the public there at the price you set. You might want to check amazon to see the price of ebooks on that site.
