Concise Guide to Self-Publishing Your Book: What You Need to Know

By Mike Miller

Although this book focuses on KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing), much of the content applies to other self-publishing services. Some say self-publishing is "doing all the work yourself". Not exactly. There are many services that can help the "self-publishing" process. These services can include several types of editing, marketing, content design, layout, cover design, collateral creation, online sales, printing, distribution, and more. Taking advantage of these services may allow you more opportunity to focus on creativity. But you must establish your self-publishing goals and identify viable helpers along the way. These steps include assessing yourself, and assessing and evaluating self-publisher service candidates, selecting and negotiating a work plan, paying a service fee, and marketing/selling your book. There is a lot to deal with. Compared to "traditional publishing", self-publishing can dramatically accelerate the process of getting your book "out there", and can result in higher per-book revenues.
