All Things Book Making...
You want to publish a story? Become an Author? Become an illustrator? There is not one road to achieving this, but many! I cannot tell you what road is best for you, but I can tell you the road I took.
Here are all my personal musings in processes I use, lessons I have learned on my self publishing journey to becoming a very lucky (luck is when hard work meets opportunity) author and artist! The order of the steps begins at the bottom and works its way up, I don’t know how to reverse the sequence!

BEWARE of vanity publishers!
What is a vanity publisher? Someone who is asking you for money to publish YOUR book! They justify the amount with hollow promises but trust me, you will not get what you think. Vanity publishers tend not to call themselves vanity publishers. Instead, they describe their services as 'joint venture publishing' or 'partnership publishing'.
