Thanks, as ever, Elizabeth, for all of these very helpful links. Interesting that there are several of them about making the choice to self-publish. I think if you’re going to self-pub, it’s important to know exactly what you’re getting into and how to go about it in the most productive way.
Margot–It’s definitely helpful to be prepared. Self-pub is a lot of work at first…but then, once you’ve got the hang of it, it’s a lot easier.
Happy Easter and congratulations on the book!!
Alex–And same to you! Two more days for yours, right?
Happy Easter! Hope your day is the best. I’m going now to check out your new book. Tessa was just saying to me yesterday that she needs to read one of your books, since I always say your writing is as smooth as butter. NOW is the time. :)
Teresa–Happy Easter! And thanks! Hope she’ll enjoy it. :)
