OPTIONAL IWSG Day Question: What publishing path are you considering/did you take, and why?
Deciding to self-publish my manuscript...
Was the most difficult decision I’ve made recently.
For years, I clung to the concept...
That self-pub’d books were not worthy...
Because an agent and/or publisher hadn’t picked them up.
But...
After years of rejection and mind exhaustion...
I reevaluated the self-publishing notion.
With successes like: Amanda Hocking, E.L. James, Robert Kiosaki, and others...
And also friends who successfuly went this route...
I made the decision to do this...
To become "hands-on"...
Not just as a writer/author...
But doing every job in between.
(of course, whining all the way)
And tah dah!!!
My book will launch in early October!
There!
I finally said it!
So?
What path did you take or will you take?
What is/was your experience?
Always,
Em-Musing
