Self Publishing 101 links
Many first time authors seeking to get published have often asked where to begin. As I continue to post blogs on this subject, I thought it wise to post a page of just links. This will help you get started on the education process. Like any endeavor, there’s a learning curve and the internet and author family has lots to share.
Listed below are some of my favorite links.
Links and resources:
Resources in writing, self-publishing, marketing and entrepreneurial tasks
Joanna Penn also has several books available including How to Market a Book, which I have read, Public Speaking, Business for Authors, and Career Change. Tutorials: How to Publish a Book 101, 7 Worst Mistakes Indie Authors and How to Fix Them.

Highly recommend local small press for first book. In Louisiana, River Road Press is a good choice.
