An invaluable resource for all authorpreneurs looking to build a sustainable business
Dale L. Roberts’ Self-Publishing with Dale book series equips aspiring authors with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed. In the first book, Dale L. Roberts An invaluable resource for all authorpreneurs looking to build a sustainable business
Dale L. Roberts’ Self-Publishing with Dale book series equips aspiring authors with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed. In the first book, Dale L. Roberts walked new authors through the basic steps of writing and publishing their first book. In his new book, Advanced Self-Publishing for Authors: A Guide to Author Success and Platform Growth, Roberts dives deeper into the complexities of publishing wide, mastering marketing, promotion, and diversifying income streams to create a sustainable author business.

Dale L. Roberts is a seasoned authorpreneur and the creator of the popular YouTube channel. For years, he has shared valuable insights, strategies, and the latest news in the self-publishing world through his channel. This extensive experience allows him to convey his knowledge in a way that novices can easily understand. He breaks down complex topics into manageable steps and provides actionable tips they can immediately implement.

Valuable advice
Advanced Self-Publishing for Authors emphasizes that authors do not need to publish one book after another to make a living. Instead, Dale advocates for diversifying revenue streams to safeguard against potential pitfalls. He suggests starting early because “it takes at least two or more years to gain any real traction. Rather than wait for the right time, it’s best to begin working your way toward a diversified author business as soon as possible.”

Roberts explores several income sources to help authorpreneurs grow their business, such as audiobooks, online courses, or affiliate marketing. He also introduces reputable tools that can assist them in this journey. Moreover, he discusses the benefits and challenges associated with these prospects. This empowers his readers to make informed decisions tailored to their unique goals and circumstances.

Advanced Self-Publishing for Authors' rating
Although the tone of Advanced Self-Publishing for Authors is mostly encouraging, Roberts does not shy away from harsh realities. He candidly states, “When breaking into the business of writing and self-publishing, you’re going to find hardships, heartaches, and horse manure.” This honesty is crucial, especially for novices who might not be prepared for the challenges ahead. Many authors quit after publishing one or two books because earning money was far more difficult than they expected. Hence, Roberts’ advice to “temper your expectations with reality” is one any author should heed.

While this book is packed with information, it lacks depth in certain areas. Regardless, I highly recommend this manual to all readers who want to know how to make money as an author beyond just publishing a book. Ultimately, Advanced Self-Publishing for Authors is an excellent guide that equips aspiring authors with the tools and knowledge needed to grow their platform and build a sustainable business. ...more

A candid and practical guide for writers navigating the digital landscape
In “Consistent Creative Content: A Guide to Authoring and Blogging in the Social Media Age”, author Lee Hall offers pragmatic tips and valuable strategies for publishing a book A candid and practical guide for writers navigating the digital landscape
In “Consistent Creative Content: A Guide to Authoring and Blogging in the Social Media Age”, author Lee Hall offers pragmatic tips and valuable strategies for publishing a book and blogging. His advice remains timely and effective even though the book is a few years old, as I discovered the guide through his X-Account (formerly Twitter).

Lee’s writing is concise and straightforward. His conversational writing style makes the book engaging and easy to read. He cuts through the fluff to deliver practical advice and shares his successes and failures with honesty and humility.

Key lessons for authors
Hall underscores the value of consistent writing and marketing, but also provides several vital lessons for writers:
1. Every author/blogger starts from zero. He notes, “I’ve always measured my results beside the number from where I started—absolute zero. And compared to zero, my numbers today appear to be quite impressive.”
2. Success, no matter how you define it, is not a guarantee. Hall encourages his readers to focus on personal growth rather than external comparisons. He states, “Success is in the eye of the beholder, and when it comes to writing and blogging, you are only competing against yourself.”
3. Embrace failure and learn from it. He writes, “Some call low numbers failure, but to me, there are no failures in life, just lessons and opportunities. Both go hand in hand when it comes to writing.”
4. Writing is a process, not a coincidence. Lee emphasizes, “The most important thing in writing is to start.”

Minor issues
The book’s wide range of topics makes it feel unfocused. Perhaps dividing the content into separate books—one on writing and blogging, the other on marketing and social media—would have been a better approach.

Some parts of the book are repetitive. Repetition is useful for emphasis, but too much is just redundant. At times, Lee crosses this line.

Rating
Lee Hall’s “Consistent Creative Content: A Guide to Authoring and Blogging in the Social Media Age” is an excellent resource for those who want to write and publish in the digital age. I especially suggest this for beginners who find the many aspects of publishing and book marketing overwhelming. This guide will save you countless hours of research by providing a solid foundation in these areas. However, advanced authors and bloggers will also find valuable insights. ...more
