This book will guide you through the journey of self-publishing, from initially writing your book, through to formatting for publication, uploading for sale, and promoting your ebook.Discussion of self-publishing isn’t limited to Amazon only, as so many other books like this are. Instead, How To Self-Publish Your Book will help you explore all the major self-publishing platforms and outline the strengths and weakness of each — allowing you to chart your own path to self-publishing success, rather than following a cookie cutter formula that worked for one person.

Co-written by Craig Gibb and John Robin, this volume collects their knowledge and experience from their respective careers working with Indie authors to help you succeed at self-publishing.Craig Gibb is the author of over seventy titles (under various pen names), many of which have been bestsellers, and is the outreach coordinator for Story Perfect Editing Services.

    5.0 out of 5 stars I'll be using this as a guide for all of my self-published books!

    Wow! Hands down the best "self-publishing" book I have come across. There is so much value jam-packed in this book. Frankly, I'm surprised it's being sold at a low price. One thing that seperates this book from the others, is the simplicitic, 12 step process it took me through when formating my novel (converting it from a word document into an epub). I'm not the most computer savy person, but with the guidence of this book I converted my novel with ease-- and it looks amazing!
    This simple guide covers everything you would need to know about self-publishing, and even offers some recommended services for things that aspiring authors may not be able to do on their own (editing, cover design, book formatting, etc). On top of all the "self-publishing basics", this book is honest about pen-names, shady industry scams, copywrite/legal issues. It's written by someone who cares about your process, and that comes through clearly in the text.

    I plan on writing self-published novels for a long time, and I know I will use this as a guide each time I am ready to publish.
    The authors are soon releasing a book on "marketing" for self publishers, can't wait to see their wisdom articulated in that as well!
