These days, writers find themselves baffled by the many paths to publication. Once you have written your book, the work of getting it published begins, and the industry offers a lot of choices. Which is the right way to go? That depends. But for many, self-publishing is a great option, especially if they want to get their book out quickly, want to retain editorial control, and earn larger royalties. Should you self-publish? And what’s involved?
Self-publishing means exactly what it sounds like: the author (the self) is also the publisher. They are the one coordinating all the production of the book, finding a way to get their book to readers, and they earn the revenue that their book generates. It also means they pay for editing and design.
At A Powerful Story, we provide assisted self-publishing service. We take your book from manuscript to published book. But we are not a hybrid publisher. We guide authors in becoming publishers. We coordinate with a design team and make sure every detail is taken care of.
Our self publishing package includes:
- A three-step comprehensive edit (developmental, copy edit, and final proofread)
- Cover design (back, spine and front)
- Interior page design
- Guidance on purchase of ISBNs and account set up on self-publishing platform (KDP or Ingram)
- Publishing your book!
