  • Nice summary, well presented. I'm 2/3 of the way through my manuscript, and as it's got a Christmas theme, I hope to launch by October or so. (Time to buckle down on that last third.)
  • Good info. Glad I signed on with iUniverse and plan to announce my book in May!
  • Very good, Thanks Don McComber
  • Thanks for the help. I am right at step 5 and 6. You have given me some good ideas on how to get my book out there. Now, how do I go about planning a celebration? - and other events to get it out there. Steven Timothy
  • WOW!!!! That was so helpful!!! I just wish I would have heard that 5 years ago when I started writing! I was so confused as to what I needed - an agent, an illustrator, a publisher. I had no idea that support self-publishing was so easy. I am currently waiting for a copy of my book any day now and am looking forward to marketing it! Thanks! Cory (Just Joshin')
