The WriteR Stuff: Step-by-Step Guide to Self-publishing:

by Debra Blaine

Overview

Overwhelmed by the publishing process?
Are you beyond frustrated, waiting months (or years) for an agent to get back to you?
Or is your hybrid publisher saying your book will be 6 months late going to print? (and then, after paying them a fortune, you'll only get pennies for each book sold?)

And yet...
are you terrified by the idea of self-publishing?

This book is for you. I'm a three-time award-winning novelist who has helped dozens of indie authors self-publish their books with worldwide distribution.

And they keep 100% of their royalties.

The first time I self-published, it took only 67 days to go from my final draft through two professional edits, have a killer cover crafted, and get it platformed for distribution around the globe.

You spent long, arduous hours writing your book. Your very soul is on those pages. You deserve to get it released without having to jump through Olympic-sized hoops.

And you deserve to get paid on a monthly basis.

This guide contains everything you need to know to self-publish, and where to find it.
From editors to ISBNs. Also including:

- What to look for when choosing a cover or a designer
- Tips on writing your blurb and choosing categories
- Extra elements you'll want to place in the back of your title
- How to format your manuscript for upload to any or all distributors
- How royalties are calculated
- And much more

Plus, a step-by-step list of exactly what to do to create a premium book whose quality will be indistinguishable from that of a traditional publishing house.

You can get your treasured book baby out there, everywhere, in no time-and make 4 X the royalties!
