Self-Publishing Is A Expensive Addiction. Keep Your Day Job.
Save yourself. It’s too late for me.
A persistent myth about self-publishing is that it is inexpensive. That is a lie. If you think self-publishing your book will be cheap, think again.
A tech-savvy person can learn to perform the tasks required to publish a book. Learning all those skills could take years.
I’ve self-published six books. I’ve attempted to find the best package for every step along the way. The best package is not the cheapest; the best package is the best overall mix of cost and time investment that suit my needs. I base the indicated costs on my personal experiences.
When I learn to perform a task rather than pay, I’ll share the quotes I received that steered me to the do-it-yourself road.
The parameters of the book are:
· twenty-two thousand words
· English
· non-fiction
· no illustrations
