This is a 700+ pages novel and my friend wants to get a few personal copies. Anyone’s got any print on demand recommendations?
Apparently lulu is crazy prices now and createspace doesn’t exist anymore.

I'm not interested in making money off my work so it will probably just be released as a free .epub and online version. if i do put it on createspace or something it'll sell at-cost.
