please send us an introduction about yourself and your product
to sell, the work you did in the past, your popularity, the
field of work or the approach of the book, and the type of
market you believe your book is addressed to within the bodybuilding
and fitness community (Please be more specific than “all
bodybuilders”.) Your eBook must be revised, corrected,
error-proof, properly edited and ready to sell on MDT.com

MUST inform us who told you about MDT.com, or where you heard
about it first.
More renowned authors that will be able

Book Publishing
On Amazon.com and in libraries
There is a possibility to become
a published author in paperback or hardcover by “F.Lepine
Publishing”, partner with DrakoMedias for MDT.com. Usually,
an author’s share is 10% on all paperback sales, and
up to 20% for very popular authors (10,000 units sold per
year minimum, which is extremely rare). F.Lepine gives out
a flat 15% share of all paperback sales to his authors, regardless
of their popularity.
To have your paperback book
sold on Amazon.com and possibly libraries, or only to have
your book edited for eBook selling, please send us an introduction
about yourself and your book, the work you did in the past,
your popularity, the field of work or the approach of the
book, and the type of market you believe your book is addressed
to within the bodybuilding and fitness community (Please be
more specific than “all bodybuilders”.) Your manuscript
must be revised, corrected and error-proof. We will make a
cover image for you and edit your book suitable for printing
and eBook publishing, then send it to print.
F.Lepine will accept many book
topics, but only those who relate to bodybuilding and training
will be sold on MDT.com. F.Lepine usually takes care of all
the editing needed to produce a paperback version of a book,
but a 100$ submission fee might be required from authors that
cannot provide sufficient proof of their book’s success.
This fee covers evaluation time required assessing a book’s
success possibilities. (This fee is NOT always required.)
If you choose F.Lepine
as a publisher, F.Lepine will take a 15% publisher’s
share on all book sales, including eBook sales (whether on
MDT.com or elsewhere). Authors may purchase multiple copies
of their own paperback books at discount price. F.Lepine will
decide of the final selling price of each book, but a suggestion
on the part of the author is required. All books sold on MDT.com
thereafter linked to Amazon.com will be using DrakoMedias’s
Amazon affiliate link. We will not use other affiliate links.
Contact us for more information.
Translating Services
We are currently looking for competent translators
who would be willing to translate various popular books for
a percentage of the author’s share. Right now we are
thinking of 30% of the author’s share, although this
remains to be determined. To apply for a MDT.com translator's
position, send us sufficient information about your competence
in a specific language.
Translating a book in another language,
in the form we do it on MDT.com, is a rush load of work one-time,
which is then compensated by a recurring retribution for many
years (not to say forever). We put authors and translators
in contact, but there are no obligations to respect MDT.com’s
suggested way of doing.
Contact us for more information.
Affiliate program
We payout to our affiliates:
- 25% on all electronic goods sales
(eBook, video download)
- 6% on all tangible sales (paperback
books)
We send checks on a monthly basis.
Contact us for more information.
