✨ Self-publishing a book can feel like a whirlwind, but a publishing checklist can help keep everything organized and moving smoothly. Check out my self-publishing playlist for more great content! ✨ ruclips.net/p/PLUQYq7Qzlq20F6iUUcJdA0vKXomOggz4n
I did not know Barnes & Noble Press was a thing. Where have I been? This is great info, I love your videos. You should sell your books as e-books on a “Big Cartel” platform so you get 100% of the profit. A PDF download, ePub, kindle etc. (using Scrivener.) just a thought. BTW I love the sticky notes, Easy way to move around
Love your videos....Let's just say, I've been around the block a couple times and you my friend are my favorite to watch. You are informative and relatable. I really appreciate the time you took to do ALL these videos. It's not easy putting yourself out there and being vulnerable. Wishing you success on your journey!
I just subscribed to your channel. I had to chuckle as I was watching your vids in regards to self-publishing, but discovered your van build project. It is another thing that I’ve been researching for the last several months and just got a vehicle to build out. I would enjoy watching your progress and how you guys design it. I’m also looking forward to watching more about your journey and information on writing, publishing, etc.
Faye Strudler Hi Faye! I’m always excited to meet another person interested in vanning/travel. It’s been really snowy and cold here lately so the build has slowed down a bit, but I hope to share more about the van once the weather warms up a bit 😊🚐
I really enjoy your content. I wish I would have found it sooner. I have been working on a children’s book for a couple years in my spare time and it is ready to publish. Your site has some of the best honest information I have come across. Thank you.
i have started my self publishing journey by offering my poetry chapbooks in my etsy shop, the same way I used to sell my crochet patterns. Do you get more ereaders than physical readers? I am going to be getting my own copy of Song of the Dryad it's just soo pretty and knowing how much work you put into it makes it look golden
Love this video so much! Someone suggested your videos on my writing group and I’m so grateful they did 🙏🏼 I finished my first draft that is 17 chapters and 29,720 words! Excited to proof read and have it edited! I have the cover and now I need to do the formatting I watched in your other video. Thank you for all the help! You’re helping make my dreams come true!
Wow Natalia, thanks for letting us into your process. I love the idea of sending the first chapter to newsletter subscribers, and I'm going to implement it for my launch as well. I can't wait to see more of your launch :0)
Every time I watch one do the videos I get motivated to actually get up and edit my book, instead of hoping the computer comes to life and edits the novel for me 😂😂
Very interesting 🌎 I have been in that journey myself. 🙋🙋 I became a writer at age 61 in Bogotá, Colombia. It has been my way to overcome my reality as immigrant.It has been my way to protest elegantly and reach the World 🌍 The Venezuelan immigrant writer 🇻🇪
Amity Miller I’ve definitely thought about it, but so far have decided against it. It’s pretty darn expensive, but maybe it’s pay off? I’m really not sure 😅
Angelia Irizarry I’d love to work with you Angelia! And I do hope to turn Pistol Daisy into an audiobook. I’ve never done it before, but I’d love for the book to be in as many formats as possible so that the largest number of people can enjoy it 🥰
@@NataliaLeigh He's adorable! Just a quick note, I did sign up for your newsletter and got a confirmation, but I haven't received the free printable so I just wanted to let you know in case maybe some of the links weren't working :)
@@claeriekauthor Thanks for signing up! The newsletter triggers on the next day after you sign up, so if you signed up today you should receive it tomorrow.
Angela Sutton Not a silly question at all! My ARC readers will be expected to read the book and then review it on Goodreads and Amazon. That’s it! They get a free book and I get a review 🙂

April Teesdale Hi April! Yeah Barnes and Noble Press is relatively new (I believe) but they’re free to use and the books are gorgeous!

I really appreciate the time you took to do ALL these videos. It's not easy putting yourself out there and being vulnerable. Wishing you success on your journey!
Whew! So much to do. I'll have my finger ready on the order button. Happy writing.
Definitely a lot to do, but I love this part of the process! It's such an exciting time. :)

Nice video... Nice cat!! Greetings from Colombia. The Venezuelan immigrant writer 🇻🇪
Awesome job! Self publishing can seem so overwhelming that breaking it up like this can definitely help. Can’t wait to see the cover reveal :)

I just want to say I just bought SOTD and im so excited to start reading it! :)
Jasmine Ross Thank you so much Jasmine! I really hope you enjoy Charlotte’s story 🌱🧚🏻♀️
Thank you so much for this breakdown! Having a checklist but also order/timing of when to do what is so helpful!
Thank you!
You're very welcome Susan! :)
Inspirational video. I would be curious to see what you do after the release date. Do you have any promotional projects planned for after?
Love the "finished" sticky note pile
This is such a useful video... thanks for sharing!
Looking forward to the cover! 🐎 🤠
Glad you found it useful Evie! And ohmygosh, I can barely contain my cover-reveal excitement, lol!
Will you be updating your intro after the publication of Pistol Daisy to include the novel on top of Song of The Dryad? I LOVED this video by the way!
Absolutely! 💙 And I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!
Every time I watch one do the videos I get motivated to actually get up and edit my book, instead of hoping the computer comes to life and edits the novel for me 😂😂
I am so excited to read this!!!

Update back cover...I like it 🌎
Woohoo! So exciting 😁 will you be or have you rhought about putting an e-arc on netgalley?
Amity Miller I’ve definitely thought about it, but so far have decided against it. It’s pretty darn expensive, but maybe it’s pay off? I’m really not sure 😅
I signed up for the newsletter but I'm not sure how to get printables
How do you get proofs on B&N, but not publish with them?
I just discovered your channel and I’m thinking I would love to use your editing services. My question is will Pistol Daisy be available on Audible?
Angelia Irizarry I’d love to work with you Angelia! And I do hope to turn Pistol Daisy into an audiobook. I’ve never done it before, but I’d love for the book to be in as many formats as possible so that the largest number of people can enjoy it 🥰
Natalia Leigh sweeet! Looking forward to it!!
what is ARCs?
How did I push my book
Oh my goodness the cat that tried to make a cameo in your video looks exactly like Sammi my kitty! Which cat is it?
Aww! That was Tifa 🐾 I love him soooo much! 💙

This might be a silly question and sorry if it is. What is expected of your arch readers? Xx

I would love to become one of your arc readers and I am signed up for your news letter. I live in the uk I hope that will not be a problem? Xx
Misleading video titles, nor of an advertisement to purchase her book.
Did ya'll get a free pdf check list when you signed up for the newsletter? I didn't get one. Am I missing something? Thanks.
Editing...hard 🌎
