    . hello. It's very difficult to answer this question because obviously it's a massive field. Of course there is demand for books. I think the development over the past few years is that the quality of self pub bed books has to be higher...maybe closer to traditional publishers. There was a...

    Good Lord. This is probably the funniest thread I've ever read. I actually had to stop eating while reading for fear of choking. Absolute pure gold.

    Trying Out Self-Publishing

    That's brilliant. I actually think you are a very good writer even though I am not the target audience. I think that reinvesting in something else is a very wise move. I started this late last year and now am thinking about ramping it up a little. For me the frustration is that once you release...

    Learn How to Edit? Or Outsource? (Fiction)

    PUBLISHING 
    I I feel your pain. I'm sure it takes me longer for me to edit than it does for the writer to write it. However What I've been doing is send the edited text back to the writer so they can see what im aiming at. I think that after a while they will hone it down. I'm in non-fiction though.

    Learn How to Edit? Or Outsource? (Fiction)

    PUBLISHING 
    I would recommend doing the editing yourself at the beginning. Then when you have the books looking how you want them to you can get someone to replicate it for you. But I'd start off doing it if you are not doing the writing....if you are writing then maybe you need a second opinion.

    Hi, thanks, I appreciate it. It's difficult to give specific advice as I don't know your genre (you can pm me if you like). I do think you need to be careful with the outsourcing of non fiction. I think that with non-fiction it's either sheer volume of output or quality. In some cases you can do...

    Hi, yes I think you made the right decision to be honest. If your present audience buys your new 'new style' book and then starts to 'hate' on it then it can be difficult to get out of that; especially with the non-fiction. I released the second book for the new pen name and people (in one...

    Funny (?) bad review story. I have just started a new pen name and am experimenting with something new. Anyway I had a 5 star review, then I got a 2 star review and the original reviewer took theirs down and said it was because of the new review (WTF?). Then I was going to report the two star to...

    Hi, Yes fame at last. At least it is for my female pen name/alter ego. Sales are definitely going in the right direction, I matched the last financial year in the past two months which was pretty unexpected and very timely. So things are going well at last. The major change has been micro...
