SELF-PUBLISHING: PRE-PUBLISH CHECKLIST
As I went through the process of preparing my novel for publication, like the dork I am, I documented every step of the way so I would remember it the next time around. Full disclosure: these are just my basic notes organized into coherent sections (so don't be expecting anything fancy!). With so much information out there, this at least gives you a real-life, step-by-step example of what it takes to get your book ready, and could save you a lot of time. I also included the duration of each step.
INCLUDES:
- Finding/hiring an Editor
- Formatting your manuscript
- Purchasing ISBN(s)
- Finding/hiring a Cover Designer
- Registering a Copyright
SELF-PUBLISHING: PUBLISH CHECKLIST
Once all the prep work was completed for my novel, I then researched various self-publication platforms and chose the ones that best fit my needs. Yep...I documented all of that too, and included it in this informal document.
INCLUDES:
- Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP)
- Barnes & Noble Press
** For each, I step through the publication screens from start to finish for both an eBook and a Paperback, including everything necessary to register your account for royalty payments.
