SquarePeg Books

This month’s question is about book launches. Right now, I’m focusing more on getting books out there, first. Then I’ll start some marketing stuff when I’ve got a few titles out there.

I’m a one-body shop, so it gets a little challenging to coordinate all the things. Right now, I’m finalizing my first fantasy book (Heralds of Change–April 15!). I’m using my son and his sibling to review my book cover design. No, they aren’t professional graphic artists, but they are honest about whether or not something artistic I make works for them (I’m not entirely sure that it’s a good thing, because it seems I failed on the “tact” part of delivering critiques, so we still have to work on that).

I am still working out the process and order of operations for self-pubbing. I will probably need to document instructions like an office admin for each step, down to how to access what on each website. BECAUSE EVERY MISTAKE AND TECHNICAL ERROR POSSIBLE, I HAVE DONE WITH THIS MANUSCRIPT!!!!

But I’m not upset. No. I’m fine.

Really.
