The Total Beginner's Guide to Self-Publishing
Available now: my brand-new guide to self-publishing. Drawing on many years' experience as Founder & Director of Comely Bank Publishing (and now Dean Park Press), this book is the ultimate manual for any aspiring writer who runs into the inevitable publishing brick wall.
Published on the 8th June 2020, it's priced £9.99 from Amazon in paperback, or just 99p on this site (best for me) and at Smashwords. Amazon charges another 50p (£1.49) but you can buy it there, too. The expectation is that most people will go for the super-cheap ebook.

HERE'S THE BLURB
Self-Publishing: The Total Beginner's Guide aims to provide would-be writers with all of the tools necessary to publish their own work. It looks at: the motivation for writing: the writing process itself and the writer's needs; the editing and proofreading process; typesetting; self-publishing administration; book covers; paperbacks, hardbacks and ebooks; marketing; dealing with booksellers and wholesalers; organising book launches and author events; and what writers should do next.
The book is primarily intended to be distributed as an ebook, and it is anticipated that new editions will appear in response to readers' requests for assistance in areas not fully covered here. Above all, though, it will be cheap. Every reader should get something from reading it. |
