Congratulations!

Now you know how to successfully self-publish and make a start on marketing your book. All you need to do now is take action!

I know self-publishing can seem daunting at first, but like any skill, once you’ve been through the process, it gets easier over time. It's also incredibly empowering to put your words out into the world and have complete control over all aspects of your book.

Remember, you can change things later if you want to – your cover, price, sales description, even the words in your book – so don't worry about getting things wrong. Just try your best, take it step-by-step and you'll get there in the end.

Self-publishing my first book changed my life.

Taking that initial step led me to leave my job a few years later and become a full-time indie author and creative entrepreneur.

It really is an incredible time to be an author. So, whatever your definition of success, I wish you all the best on your self-publishing journey!
