Can I publish my book in more than one language?
A. You can publish in as many languages as you like. The problem is: where will you publish in all of those languages? If you are planning to publish in multiple countries, you are setting yourself up for huge work and problems. Where will you have the books printed? If not in the country where you are printing you must consider shipping costs. What about distribution? Who will handle that in each country? What about publicity? Who will handle that in each country? What about the tax laws of having a business in each country? The list goes on and on.
That is why we recommend a good foreign rights agent. He/she will negotiate foreign rights contracts in other countries on your behalf.
