How Do I Publish of Self-Publish My Book?

The Science and Art of self-publishing companies

It's that mass emotional nerve that has me thinking many authors might do better by starting at the end point. That is, they think about marketing a book and book publishing companies before they sit down to write.

Radical idea? Yes, but it works.

You have to understand that I come from the perspective of a marketer, not a writer. For example, you'll notice that many of my sentences begin with "and"; and many more are incomplete sentences. It's the copywriter in me. I write how people talk.

Getting back on track… I suggest that you start with the end in mind. That is, self-publishing companies. What do you want to happen with your book? Are you writing for the sheer joy of writing? Or, would you like to sell a few copies of your book here and there?

What you want to do with your book can guide what you write and how you publish your book. It's all about the self-publishing companies.
