About the author:
April L. Hamilton lives in Southern California with her husband, two children, and entirely too many pets. When she's not writing, kid-wrangling, working to expand the indie author movement, promoting her work, or pursuing her grandiose and hopeless dream of a neat and orderly household, she can generally be found reading, reclaiming the domestic arts (aka "crafting") or taking in a movie. The IndieAuthor GuideBy April L. HamiltonThe publishing industry is now run like the movie business, with publishers only interested in a narrow selection of likely blockbusters. No matter how good your manuscript is, unless big publishers feel your book is destined for the bestseller lists, they will not buy it. A lot of quality work never finds its way to readers, but at last, with eBooks, Print On Demand and the power of Web 2.0, authors and micro-publishers finally have the means to publish their own books and go indie, just as filmmakers and musicians have done before them. The IndieAuthor Guide takes you through every stage of the process, including illustrated, detailed, step-by-step instructions in its comprehensive chapters: Indie Authorship An Introduction; Publishing Options; Getting Organized; Creating Your Brand; DIY Formatting For POD; Editing And Revising; Designing Your Own Book Cover; Publishing Through CreateSpace; Publishing For The Kindle; Publishing To Other EBook Formats; Promotion; An HTML Primer.
