My news today is of a surprise new release about writing and publishing. Indie Author: An Introduction shares insights from my first 10 years of writing, publishing and marketing books. Designed to appeal to the writers (and aspiring writers) among you, it is (importantly) a short guide to the whole process. I say importantly because, if you’re like me, you’ll experience a sinking sensation at the prospect of reading hundreds of pages of a book that typically only focuses on one of these three topics.

I wanted to create a quick, easy read that shares my own personal passion for writing as well as giving insights I’ve had along the way. I’m no writing or marketing guru, but I want to help you avoid some of the mistakes I’ve made. There’s also a checklist for publishing, some key book promotion sites, and ideas for social media posts.

Here’s the full blurb:
