Hello! Dominique Gibson is back with another post. I know it has been a while since I last posted but I was in some really serious pain within the last couple of days or so but I really wanted to move forward when it came to my video series on Youtube titled “Why I am saying no to traditional publishing.” I just released part one of the video explaining my reasons for why I am officially walking away from traditional publishing based on a recent video I watched a few weeks ago by a woman name Alyssa Matesic who talks about the current state of the traditional publishing as it stands now and what the future might possibly look like for both new and published authors in the traditional publishing industry.
After I watched the video, I was more convinced than ever that traditional publishing or even going the hybrid author route is not for me anymore. Curious? You can check out her video in the link down below:

Dominique Gibson knew she wanted to be a writer ever since she sat down at her plastic table and wrote her first book out of sheer boredom at eight years old. Years later, she decided to go get her Bachelor’s Degree from Columbia College Chicago. She is obtaining her master’s degree in Creative Writing from Southern New Hampshire University. When not writing, she is busy teaching infant and toddlers at a daycare center in Chicago, IL.
