      I Wrote a book! NOW WHAT? A Do-It-Yourself Guide to Self-Publishing and Establishing Your Self-Publishing Business - Julia Jane Jones

      Introduction

      Have you just finished writing your first book? Are you asking yourself now what? What happened to you, happened to me. I finished writing my first book and stood perplexed. What is the next step? How am I going to get it published? I found many very good, but lengthy ebooks when scanning on the internet the beginning pages of those ebooks which focus on keys to self-publishing. There was just too much reading! What I wanted was no extra reading, just simply steps 1,2,3 etc. on how to self-publish. Therefore my Chapter One will be Steps to Self-Publishing. Also I questioned if there were things I should be doing to establish my publishing as a legitimate business? My Chapter Two will be Steps to Establishing a Publishing Business. Lastly, I could see there were some Basics that deserve a Chapter Three.
