In 2023, I released two books on publishing. The first, Finding YOUR Path to Publication (May 2023) and the second, Self-publishing: The Ins & Outs of Going Indie (December 2023) have garnered great reviews and respectable sales. I could have left it at that, but it’s been suggested that a box set of the two books (offered at a slight discount in bundle form) would be welcome by many.
I thought about that. Both my Glass Dolphin and Marketville Mystery box sets have done remarkably well, and while it would take a few hours and the expense of new cover art, I decided to go for it. The end result is Step-by-Step Publishing Guides: Books 1 & 2, priced at $9.99 USD/CAD (e-book) and $24.99 USD/CAD (paperback). Compare that to $5.99 USD / $6.99 CAD (e-book) and $18.99 USD / $19.99 CAD (paperback) for the individual titles and it’s a considerable savings.
ABOUT THE BOOK: Whether you’re an aspiring author, a traditionally published author considering a change, or merely curious, Step-by-Step Publishing Guides is a must-have reference book covering everything from business basics and publishing platforms to post-publication sales and marketing strategies.
This two-volume box set includes Finding YOUR Path to Publication and Self-publishing: The Ins & Outs of Going Indie. Inside you’ll find an honest, unbiased look at the pros and cons of five publishing paths: traditional, independent, hybrid, self-publishing, and social publishing, as well as an in-depth look at self-publishing, all while guiding you through the process—one easy-to-understand step at a time.
