Why would anyone self-publish?

There are many reasons. Some have tried traditional publishing and grown weary of waiting for responses to their submissions and most have witnessed the success stories of countless self-published authors. Those are legitimate reasons to explore self-publishing. Many well-known authors like Margaret Atwood, Robert Kiyosaki, Zane, Beatrix Potter, E.L. James, and Wayne Dyer self-published their way to tremendous literary success. Having the confidence to self-publish does not make you a failure or vain. It gives you more control over how your message reaches readers.

There are numerous benefits to self-publishing, including:

• Fast track the publishing process.

• Retain full ownership of your intellectual property.

• Set a competitive price and offer discounts.

• The right to decide which format(s) to offer (audio, paperback, e-book).

• Keep more of the profits by eliminating gatekeepers.

Many authors are doing it successfully, and so can you. With over a dozen published books between them and years of writing experience, Dr. mOe Anderson and Dr. M. Stolard are positioned to help others avoid the mistakes commonly made by self-published authors. In this book, they share a step-by-step guide with clear examples from their publishing successes (and failures). This book bridges the gap between your manuscript and a finished, professional-looking book!
