I've been writing on and off for about fifteen years and recently decided to try an get a full book written, instead of just short stories and half finished (abandoned!) ideas.
I don't expect to be the next JK Rowling, in fact I don't expect to make a single penny from it, but it's something to tick off the bucket list and with Kindle books literally anyone can become a published author these days.
...Well, if you know how to do it right, that is!
Currently I'm writing onto Microsoft Word (2013) but I've been watching a few "Self publish in ten easy steps" sort of videos and it looks an absolute minefield, particularly the process of formatting your book for their site. I know one or two of our members have self published online, so I'm wondering if you could share any tips.
Primarily, if you could go back to the beginning when you were still in development, what would you do differently???
Thanks to all.
