I love that there are so many options ...Great post! I love that there are so many options available for today's writer. Although being published by a large company might give an author more credibility to his/her name, I've realized that readers don't necessarily choose their books based on the company; rather, they choose based on word-of-mouth. And the majority of sales today are driven through online marketing efforts, anyway. Although I've yet to self-published a book, it is definitely a route I would consider taking if a book of mine never received interest from a publisher.<br /><br />It was great reading about your journey! Thanks for sharing. <br /><br />Tessa<br />www.christiswrite.blogspot.com Tessa Emily Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08625256104634830104noreply@blogger.com
