When I decided I was ready to publish my book, I never thought that getting reviews for the book’s launch would be that difficult. Everywhere you look for information, videos, and tutorials on what to do to launch your book, you get advice about getting early reviewers as part of your book launch “team”.

Choosing a Print on Demand service (Second Part)

I found many roadblocks on KDP, IngramSpark, and BookBaby. It was time to consider others. Draft2Digital was my next option. I’ve already been getting newsletters from them and theyContinue reading “Choosing a Print on Demand service (Second Part)”
