Peter Bowerman, author of the critically acclaimed book, The Well-Fed Writer, has just published a new book, The Well-Fed Self Publisher.
If you have ever considered writing a book, whether fiction or non-fiction, at some point you've wondered how you get it published.
Do you need to hire an agent?
Do you need to join a guild?
Do you send your precious writing off to every publisher in the industry?
A growing trend in the publishing field is that of self-publishing. I have also recently joined the ranks of writers who have self-published their works. In June, I wrote a workbook called "It's a Party, Planning a Successful Retail Sales Event."
I wrote the words, laid out the text in a book format, hired a designer to create a lovely cover, researched printing houses and printed 100 copies.
Ever since I have been sending press releases, showcasing my book when I give speeches, featuring it on my website and believe it or not - I've been selling them!
If you have something to say but hesitated because you didn't know how to go about finding a publisher - look no further. Check out Peter's latest book - and give self-publishing a try.
