The author has worked in the publishing sector for over a decade, half of which was spent working in traditional publishing houses, including at one of the U.K.’s largest publishers. Based on her first self-publishing experience, which was very different to the experience of “traditional” publishing, she decided to turn her notes from that into this book. The aim is that others can learn not only how to publish their own work but also how to create strategies that will help sell more copies.
