"Simpsons writers have already done that."

14. Why not electronically self-publish?

I'll bet lots of folks are reading quite a bit more since being home. I'm pretty sure Amazon makes it really easy to do. They even have artists who will whip up cover art for starting somewhere around $5. I've never done it, but several friends have with amazing success.

They have cautioned to have several people read & suggest edits. Omitting this step, they say, is one of the biggest mistakes authors make because readers will be quickly turned off if there are typos, incorrect word usage, or grammatical errors.

The other suggestion is to have 2-3 more books ready to publish before e-publishing the 1st one because if readers find resonance with your work, they will rip through the first book & buy another. If a 2nd ism't already on the market, they lose interest & look elsewhere.

I hope this is helpful in some way. 😚
