How Does Shipping and Distribution Work for a Self-Published Book?

Independent publishing takes focused work. The author — and any team members they hire — is responsible for writing, editing, proofreading, formatting, and designing the book. When all of that work is finalized, you must determine how to get the finished product into the hands of readers.

Magda Revealed by Ursula Werner

Magda Revealed by Ursula Werner

Setting the record straight on the life and legacy of Jesus Christ through the words of his truest companion, Magda Revealed by Ursula Werner is a revelatory work of fiction, which humanizes the Son of God in a way few writers have achieved. Elevating the idea of radical equality as the cornerstone of Christianity, this book assertively challenges the modern conceptions and unexamined dogma of the world’s largest religion, resulting in a refreshing and articulate new perspective on Yeshua and the forgotten foundations of his faith. Wickedly clever, yet respectful in its bold retelling, this is an inventive, immersive, and […]

An Interview with Dave Tabler: Author of Delaware from Freeways to E-ways

Dave TablerTen-year-old Dave Tabler decided he was going to read the “R” volume from the family’s World Book Encyclopedia set over summer vacation. He never made it from beginning to end. He did, however, become interested in Norman Rockwell, rare-earth elements, and Run for the Roses.

Tabler’s father encouraged him to try his hand at taking pictures with the family camera. With visions of Rockwell dancing in his head, Tabler press-ganged his younger brother into wearing a straw hat and sitting next to a stream barefoot with a homemade fishing pole in his hand. The resulting image was terrible.

Dave Tabler […]
