How to Self Publish Successfully
Make your book a reality. See it on bookshelves. Get it out to readers. Don't wait for some commissioning editor in a publishing house to find it at the bottom of their slush pile. Take action yourself and self publish.

FROM SARAH,
EDITOR OF FREELANCE WRITING WORLD:

Join the ranks of successful self publishers. You don't have to wait until a publisher finally considers your book worthy of being published. YOU know it's good. You know that reader will benefit from it or enjoy reading it. So why leave the fate of your book in the hands of complete stranger?

Take the destiny of your own book into your own hands by self publishing.

You'll join successful self publishers such as:

  • James Redfield - the man behind The Celestine Prophecy . He self-published the book - and later sold the rights to Warner Books for over $800,000.
  • Matthew Reilly – the Australian author who self published his first novel Contest . It was eventually spotted in a bookstore by a publisher who bought the rights Ice Station , which became an international best-seller. This would never have happened if he didn't self publish in the first place.
  • Sandra Cabot's best selling Liver Cleansing Diet is a self publishing success story!
  • H. Jackson Brown self-published Life's Little Instruction Book , which stayed at the top of the New York Times best-seller list for MONTHS – and sold over 5 million copies!

There are MANY more successful self publishers.

The reality is that when you send your manuscript to a mainstream publisher, you are competing with tens of thousands of other manuscripts. And let's say it makes it into the hands of a commissioning editor. You could have the best book in the world but unless it happens to push the buttons or captures the fancy of that specific editor, it ends up in the reject bin.

Don't let this happen to you!

You know that what you have written is worthwhile. So why not give yourself a chance at success. Don't be ruled by the whims of an editor who may not be able to see the vision behind your book.

When you self publish, you are taking the steps towards turning your book into a publishing success story. Get it out of the bottom drawer and make it happen.

However, there's more to self publishing than simply finding a printer and getting it printed. You want to know the RIGHT steps to self publishing success.

Carol Anne Strange's book on Self Publishing Secrets is an excellent guide to show you the right formula on how to do it right.

Carol's book:

  • Will help you avoid the pitfalls faced by self publishers
  • Condenses months of research (that you would otherwise have to do yourself) into this simple guide
  • Shows you which books will succeed in self publishing – and which ones won't
  • Why you MUST steer clear of vanity publishers
  • How to market your book and gain valuable publicity
  • How to use the web to promote your book
  • And much more

This is a great resource if you want to self publish your way to success.

The best part is that it takes the guesswork out of what it otherwise a fairly complex process. Carol distills the information you need – so you don't have to wade through it. She gives you the steps you have the take and reveals Self Publishing Secrets you won't find anywhere else.
