We asked our following what questions they had about writing, publishing and marketing their books, and we answered them in a live Q&A session. The majority of the questions focussed on self-publishing books, so that was our focus. We answered questions about ISBN’s, book distribution, choosing a title, formatting, and more.
Here’s what some of the live attendees had to say:
“Great info…great presentation. Thanks.” ~ Yves
“It was very informative. Great Job!” ~ Susan

We touched on book marketing lightly during this webinar. Most of the questions we received were from authors just starting out. You can get more tips for beginners in my eBook, Book Marketing for Beginners, or check out our list of books for authors here.
