I’M BACK! Oops, sorry, didn’t mean to shout.
It’s crazy how fast time flies! Especially when you set yourself a goal that you really want to achieve.
To recap:
This year involves The Adventure to Achieve a Life-Long Dream. In other words, my goal is to publish a book. Thus, why I’ve not been posting. I’ve been figuring out why it TAKES SO LONG to produce a beautiful book. A traditionally published book can take 18 to 24 months to hit the shelves.
With self publishing, or Independant publishing, this can move a lot faster…but to do it well, you have to slow down to learn the ins and outs because there are a lot of details involved. (Once I learn all the shenanigans, things should run more smoothly). But to give you an idea of my process so far, I feel like a Jack Russell puppy chasing a group of squirrels.
Now…
It’s starting to come together to the point that I can see the finished product emerging from the flying fur. MY EXCITEMENT KNOWS NO BOUNDS! (Oops, sorry, there’s the shouting again.)
If you’d like to join me, I’d love to share this adventure with you. For progress details, check out The Adventure Page.
Otherwise, I’ll be posting stuff as I learn it in the coming days. Hope to see you around =)
Blessings,
Jennifer
(P.S. The book’s titled The Adventure.)
THIS IS EXCITING!! Not that I’m an all-knowing Indie guru, but I did choose that route so if there’s ever anything I can help you with…..JUST ASK! 🙂 Best of luck, my talented friend! xoxo
HI BETH! Oops. Sorry for the shouting =) It’s so good to hear from you. How is the indi book publishing world treating you? I’ll be sure to hit you up if I’ve got any questions!
Indie publishing is great! I never stop learning bc the industry never stops changing/growing. It’s a mountain of info to surmount! It looks like you’ve got a handle on things, but if you ever have a questions about marketing/social media/ISBN’s…..ANYthing, just ask. If I don’t know it, I’ll know someone who will. Also, my amazing indie author bud Katie Cross has dedicated her site to helping other indies. Great resource! kcrosswriting.com
