Selfpublishing your book can feel like enrolling in Arizona State: your last option after endless rejection.
But it doesn't have to be that way. Great authors can selfpublish and it can be a great way to ensure your creative freedom and avoid the headaches of traditional publishing. At least, that's what I'd tell my friends and family.
In this video, I'll take you through my selfpublishing journey to help you avoid the same mistakes I made. For example, I'll you need to have a concrete marketing plan before hand, you need to use an editor and you need to send out advanced copies before publishing. Obviously, if you do these things you'll be very successful because so few people do it.
