Dreaming about self-publishing ebooks? I already have that in mind for the updated version of Badgerman & Bogwitch. But what about launching the just completed, Key to Finlac into the unknown?
What does it take to become conventionally published?
There is a lot of luck involved. Once you have written a great and well-told story, you still need your book to land on the right desk at the right time and find the right gap in the list - as critical as a Mars landing. But there is little science to it - even less for the agentless author.
And as for self-publishing ebooks?
It's as exciting as Firework Night, but you are pointing your little rocket into the heavens. You are not even aiming at a planet. Be prepared. (I was a Boy Scout.) More than likely your dream is going to fall to earth unseen.
