My journey to self-publishing my books tells how I clambered out of the querying trenches into the frightening no-man’s land of self-publishing. And survived!
Budding novelists are increasingly faced with the decision these days whether to go the ‘traditional’ publishing route or to self-publish.
Traditional generally implies seeking a literary agent for your manuscript who will then attempt to sell it to one of the mainstream publishers. It also covers that halfway house of independent and small presses. Self-publishing, however, does what it says on the tin – you are your own publisher with all that entails.
My good friend Stoney de Geyter allowed me to write a post for his blog setting out my journey to self-publishing, from seeking traditional representation to deciding to get the books out there. Many have found it useful, and I hope it will continue to prove helpful for those wondering what to do.
And all the very best whichever way you go!
