If I did it again, I would self publish and pay for a freelance editor. The value really depends on your intended audience. My guess is your book niche and you will be able to navigate distribution better than a publisher. I would double down on the investment in a freelance editor to help you polish and pull it together. (My guess is that while you might write well, you are not a professional editor.) - .... . -..-. . -. -.. -..-. .. ... -..-. .... . .-. .
