Book distribution advices for new and known authors? Technology has made it easy for authors wondering how to self-publish a book. Self-publishing offers a cost-effective way to share your book with the masses and make a bit of money off of your writing. Whether you are hoping to self-publish a print book or electronic version, here are eight tips on how to self-publish a book. Purchase an ISBN: An ISBN provides important data about your book to booksellers and labels you as the publisher. You need an ISBN if you want to sell your book. Also, be weary of self-publishing platforms that offer “free” ISBNs. Purchasing your own ISBN ensures that you have full control over it.
Use your email: A simple email letter with an image of your book can be an effective promotional tool to your friends and family. Encourage them to forward the notice to their friends about your book or create a signature line which includes a link to purchasing your book or a small graphic of the cover. Write an Online article: The Internet is a great place to post information. You can reach hundreds of thousands of people by getting the word out about your book. You can submit your press release to places like prleap.com, pr.com or prweb.com, where it is possible your article may also be picked up by regular media.
Keep going, even if you hit trouble. Barbara Freethy, author of more than 20 self-published contemporary romance books, advises writers not to give up when things get tough: I’ve been tempted to quit in the middle of writing a book, because the next story always seems easier and more exciting. But I’m usually pretty disciplined, and once I get into a story, I find a way to write through the tough times. Every novel has ups and downs, and every writer has to climb over obstacles whether it’s in the outlining or the actual writing. So if you have a story to tell, don’t give up.
