Was it hard to become a self published author? Any resources you can share?
ReplyDeleteWell, it took awhile to learn how to properly format the ebooks. Smashwords has a guide which helps with this and Amazon has resources in their guide as well. But the most important resource I use is the internetwritingworkshop.com - they provide crits, edits, writing advice in return for crits all for free! They are invaluable for writers who want to self-publish.
