How to Navigate the Path from Writing to Publishing: A 'Go To' Handbook for Indie Authors, is a ‘How To’ guide by Allyson Abbott. This is a really well put together, informative and extremely helpful guide on how to self-publish. It includes every step of the way from writing your book, to editing, then formatting, creating a cover, the publishing process, what software is available to help the process, as well as avenues for promoting your work.
This is a ‘one-stop-shop’ for everything you may need to know about the process. It includes helpful hints and insights garnered from the author's own journey of writing and publishing. There are resource tools and a plethora of website links to help you along every stage of the way. Ms. Abbott streamlines and simplifies what could otherwise be an intimidating/daunting process. This guide can be used for publishing eBooks as well as paperbacks. In this day and age, kindle, eBooks and social media can become quite powerful tools for authors, especially Indie Authors. So, Ms. Abbott also explains the benefit of networking with other authors, as well as how to build relationships using social media- to make friends, gain followers and promote your work.
I recommend this to any new author or writer who may not know where to begin; or an established author who may wish to explore their options; or anyone who may be curious about the whole writing/publishing process. You won’t be disappointed by this easy to understand, detailed and comprehensive look at the whole writing and publishing procedures.
Thank you, Ms. Abbott!
