Congratulations! You've written a book! Finally, the hard part is done, and it is written. But now what happens? Publishing can't be that hard, right? I published my first book in 2016. I had taken a few courses and thought I knew what I was doing when I went to publish. Turns out, there's a LOT of things not covered in many online courses and a LOT of things I did wrong. I published my second book in 2018, and a third in 2020. Each book was an improvement over the last as I learned more and more of the secrets of the publishing industry.

Traditional publishers don't share their secrets, they just do it for you. Self-published authors don't always know what their choices really mean, so they appear to have lower-quality results. You've worked hard on your writing. Your book deserves the best. Cover topics such as ISBN numbers, look at titles and pricing, pen names, additional pages, business details, and more to publish a high-quality book.
