...doing it? I would like to have my book sold by amazon.com and Barne and Noble. How do I go about doing this?

Simple. Contact your publisher. That is there job. Now if the book is not published by a printing house, that will be different. As all the books they carry need ISDN #s. There are a lot of small publishing companies that can work with you on this. Also they will have the contacts with the suppliers for Amazon, borders, B&N and such, and can get them on the list they can order. Getting them to stock them is a different story as they might not order them without interest being shown. For that you might have to email CS for Amazon, B&N and such direct and ask about that book title, as a consumer and see what they say.

Good Luck.

BTW please post all questions to the PROPER topics, off topic posts often get removed!

Depends how you're printing it really. If you use one of the print-on-demand sites as I have for one of mine, they will will arrange to put it up for sale on Amazon and other sites. Be aware that if they sell your book through these routes you won't make much per copy. Also the price per copy with print-on-demand is going to be high. If you're printing the book in bulk then you will need to find a distributer who will handle getting the book onto those sites, they won't deal with a publisher who only has one book

. Alternatively you can just list it yourself on Amazon marketplace?
