Self Publishing
How to Self Publish a book – a question asked by most unpublished authors. There are a few steps to take to create a high quality book that will not only sell, but be an asset to you.
Keeping it simple, your manuscript will require editing, proofreading, typesetting and cover design. Those are the basics if you wish to have a professional book to sell. Book promotion to get your book seen is a must, and a website for an online presence will also help to promote you and your book.
Self publishing also offers you the freedom to bring your work to life without relying on a traditional publisher. It allows full creative control over content, design, and marketing, while giving you higher royalty rates and quicker publication times. You can connect directly with readers, build your own brand, and make decisions that best suit your vision for your book. And we are more than happy to help – its all about getting your words out there for everyone to enjoy, or learn from.
