Vanity publishing is just that, you get an ISBN number, you get a certain number of printed books, it looks really cool, but it's just that -- vanity publishing.

If I was really serious about getting published, truly getting published, and not just the thrill of seeing your name on a book in the library, I'd go to the smaller publishing houses, forget Harlequin, Silhouettes, and the big ones. concentrate on the smaller ones. She won't get a tens of thousands in a signing bonuses (or maybe she will) but she might get honest assessments of her work.
