How I Create

I’ve had experience of both self publishing and traditional publishing and enjoy both ways of creating and sharing work but for this post, I wanted to share a little about how I independently published my debut novel The Merry Players…

Whether you would like to sell your book online or simply want to publish your work for yourself or for family and friends, the good news is that there are now easy ways to make your book come to life. ..

Do you have an idea for a gift book either to sell online or simply as something to share with your family and friends? For this book project, I wanted to create something that was like a mini piece of art…

I decided to write this ebook for anyone who finds themselves on the same path as me. For years I’ve had ideas for stories that I wanted to share but my hands felt tied as there didn’t seem to be a way to create or distribute a professional looking picture book independently.

Let me start by saying, I didn’t set out to make a picture book in a month. I just got a bit carried away. And I wouldn’t necessarily recommend doing the same.

So, first question, why would I even try to do such a thing?
