I DID IT!!! Scary!

I am independently publishing a book. A New Book. A never before published book!!!
(I am repeating myself so I can get it into my head).
I'm not sure why this freaks me out so much. I am such a dork!
But it does and I might as well admit it.
Why add lying to myself and others in with all the other details of doing this.

PS Ruthy is so courageous about this.
But anyway, I thought I'd talk about my book and what I've learned and maybe if anyone has advice or suggestions of how I should be handling all this, you could let me know.

First the book---the ebook version releases TODAY!
What are the chances??


Garrison's Law Book #1 Loving the Texas Lawman
Yes, book #1 there are 5 of them so far. Contemporary romantic suspense. These are books I wrote before I got published and I have worked hard bringing them up to date, changing names and locations and turning the heroes and heroines into one family.
Before they were spread all over.
Now they are all in Texas. I'm trying to go with my cowboy brand, although this is a ranch family, they've all grown up to be lawmen.
I found loading everything up onto Amazon pretty straightforward, but I wanted a print book and I struggled with that.
I ended up hiring Jamison Editing to edit and to do the covers.
And the Killion Group to do the formatting.
I'm not quite brave enough to do any of these things myself.
HEY I wrote the book, that's a big part!

I'm not sure if a print book is necessary.

On the other hand, it doesn't cost me anything to make a print version, other than the back cover copy and the print version formatting.

But, well, anyway, with some mixed feelings, and the main one being I myself want a print version to go on my shelf, I am going for the print, too, but it's not quite ready yet.

So if anyone has more experience with self-publishing I'd love to hear about it.
And if anyone has questions, I'd be glad to tell you just exactly how to do it....heaven knows if any of it will be right!
And if anyone would please like to go buy my book, and leave reviews, I'd really SINCERELY appreciate it. (admit it, you'd spend this on a cup of coffee that'd last you ten minutes)

Leave a comment to get your name in the drawing for an ecopy of Garrison's Law!!!
