Hi! Dominique Gibson is back with another post. To everyone in the U.S. happy Friday! For everyone else, I hope you are enjoying your weekend. So, I decided to pass on this information today about one author’s success about how he turned down a seven figure book deal so he can continue to publish the book himself. He also spent time talking with other writers and found out that being a New York Times bestselling author doesn’t always guarantee you will be given a lot of money when it comes to your advance by the publisher. He also started to realize that some of the things he noticed the publishers doing when it came to signing their authors were some of the things he was already doing himself.
I think that reading this should give all aspiring authors who want to go the self-publishing route the possibility of being successful without having to go the traditional publishing route. I’m pretty sure that if Hugh Howey can do it, so can any writer who wants to go at it alone.
