So you want to self publish a novel....

Well, I have always said it's best to learn from those who actually DO rather than those who don't. E.J. Stevens is proof of that.

E.J. has gotten so successful as a self-published author (Fifteen novels in seven years, multiple times over a best selling author and the winner of numerous awards) that she's told me during almost every time we get together that she's fending off people who want to play twenty questions and learn her deepest darkest secrets. So she decided to do something about it. Enter her new books. Listen, Christopher Golden and I founded the River City Writers in part because of a similar challenge. Want to help, want to teach, can't keep doing it for free when we have careers. 

That's the challenge here for E.J. Below are her solutions. 






The covers are self explanatory, but let's go one step further. 
Here's what E.J Says about the books on their back covers.
