Book printing woes.

I think I might need to find a local book printer. I'm waiting on two proofs; one from Amazon which was ordered on 19 December and one from Lulu which was ordered Jan 14. Its now Jan 31 and neither are close to being delivered even though I over-paid for faster shipping options. While I understand the world postage is being buggered by Covid, its just impossible for an indie author to work consistently with overseas self publishing companies under these conditions. Most of the printers in NZ appear to have minimum print run requirements (usually 50 copies), so I might have to try and save some money up, get a print run done the old fashioned way to have some books to sell locally. I don't know, much will depend on how much it all costs and, of course, whether I think I can actually shift the books. Most of my newer books haven't even crossed 30 sales yet, so a run of 50 might be excessive.
