So, you want to be a published author but cannot break through the traditional publishing market. It takes so much time to hear back from publishers, if ever. And while you wait, you wonder why you cannot just send the manuscript out to multiple companies at the same time. It would be so much easier and faster. But most publishers, you have found, don’t allow simultaneous submissions. And you don’t have an agent, so you are facing that hurdle as well. What can a talented writer do?
You can self-publish. You can become the owner of your own words and have your book sold all over the world, and for very little money. Maybe your book will then be picked up by a major publisher, or your work will be optioned for a film, or you sell a ton of copies and retire from your day job. Maybe.
Self-publishing has become the most popular way to get your works in the hands of readers, which is the whole point of writing, isn’t it? It is an accepted way to sell your works and leave out the middle-man, garnering royalties that are well above industry standard.
But how? You can do the entire process yourself, if you have the skills—format your book’s interior and cover, proofread and edit and illustrate, create an author account with Amazon.com’s KDP portal (for eBooks and paperbacks), upload your properly formatted manuscript, set your price, and reap the rewards. But what if you only want to write and don’t know how to use inDesign and Photoshop and or anything about ePub conversion?
