Being an indie writer AND publisher, especially a ‘horror’ one (which doesn’t set us apart from others but does serve to skewer the mind something odd!) meant I was taking on great tasks with each publication I released. Changes in specifics on book creators’/retailers’ websites meant new knowledge had to be acquired before, during and – AARRGGH! – sometimes after each book was released! I was single-handedly doing all along what could be done by more knowledgeable individuals. In my case, they came in the form of PublishNation.
With a team that understands the ‘pain’ and the stress of taking a manuscript from its fragile, submitted state, by doing all the formatting and uploading and other legwork to ensure its overall readability, I knew it was in capable hands. Choices are offered at affordable costs; whether you wish to see your book in electronic form or in print, PublishNation sees to it all. They ‘get’ the precisionist mentality that a stand-alone writer/publisher adopts, and help ensure that those ‘crucial’ edits – such as misplaced letters, page numbers, etc – are mended before the final document sails.
I’ve yet to explore their marketing campaign, but I’m a believer in the onus falls on the writer. If they can’t be bothered to sell their book, what chance has it got?! It is an area of PublishNation’s that I hope to encounter soon, for any additional help should be welcomed with open arms, regardless of your own efforts. That is my advice to you.
Know who you are; know what you’re writing. Use the services available to you, especially when they’re as fine and proactive as PublishNation’s.
