Self-Publishing Success Eluding You?

Most people have a story to tell, a book that they've been wanting to write, maybe since they were in high school or before. Every one I've talked to has no idea where to begin, what to do, how to get a book published. It's amazing too because Amazon and B&N and Google Play are all great places to get your books published today. Online publishing has changed the world for those who would like to write a book.

But they don't make it easy. Read the reviews from so many of the self-published authors on Amazon and a common theme is the amateurish formatting. But none of these publishers make it easy to figure out how to solve that problem. They don't tell you up front, realistically, how to achieve self-publishing success. Online publishing is fraught with "gotcha's" and loopholes to jump through.
I discovered that in my first ebook on Amazon. It took me weeks to get it formatted correctly before it was finally approved and listed for sale. But just recently I got two books formatted, approved and listed for sale in both Kindle and paperback editions.
I can't promise you that same level of success, but if you want to write a book, I can save you weeks of reading vague help files and message board posts. I can help you learn all the tips and tricks I learned from two years of publishing success.
But some people need a little more hands-on training, right?

5 Keys to Self-Publishing Success Bullet Points:

  1. Use the right software for the job
  2. Use as little formatting as possible in your first draft
  3. Use grammar and spelling checks frequently
  4. Shoot for 2000 words per day
  5. Convert after all edits have been completed
This one's not about marketing, but about how to write a high quality product that could get you noticed, unlike all those other $.99 books with the 1-star reviews because of glaringly obvious manuscript errors that Amazon should have rejected outright.

I have plenty of exciting content coming up for prospective authors to achieve self-publishing success, so be sure to register now for the newsletter (upper right column) for some email-exclusive offers.

Every Book Holds a Little World Inside

When I'm in full on writing mode, I can crank out up to 10,000 words a day.That's not normal though. I try to set a goal of getting in 2,000 words a day, like the old Stephen King writing advice states. “I like to get ten pages a day, which amounts to 2,000 words." Stephen King Goodreads I got quite a few books written in a short time span last fall, then settled down into normal daily life. The intensity required to write a book like "My Sweet Infected" was unexpectedly devastating. I became my protagonist in so many ways as she crept into my psyche and took over for me as I channeled her every thought as I created the story of her awakening. Read the book if you want to know more about this ruined world with humans on the brink of extinction. Find the clues, sort through the chaos, and realize the end is inevitable. The little world inside this book is doomed. Check it out, get the free sample for your Kindle - On Amazon My Sweet Infected (My Inf...

Eternal Redemption - Review [#horror #fantasy]

Eternal Redemption by Paul A. Wunderlich My rating: 2 of 5 stars Rating this: under the little star at position 2nd from the left, there is a little balloon that pops up "It was OK" That's about it. In general, the tone and language seem like a fervent attempt to imitate high fantasy. There are a series of editing errors that cause some confusion. It's tough to write a protagonist who drifts in and out of their own head. Time slips around in circles. An entire world of minions is disposable. When you're sitting at the top of an Everest sized pile of skulls, what's the next big challenge? Oh, yeah, trick the master trickster. Well, you get exactly what you ask for. With a little syrup on the side. View all my reviews

Film Festival History

A very long time ago when I lived in Kansas City, I attended a workshop on how to write a screenplay. At the time I was already editing my own fanzine that I later sold for an outrageous profit. I was also writing regularly for a handful of local magazines including New Age and Health topics, like the kind you find in massage studios. I did quite well and kept in touch with the instructor, who was a Hollywood Reader - the people that pre-screen submissions to studios. I wrote a screenplay and shopped it around some, getting a call from a VP at Viacom at my job in landscaping. I was completely and totally unprepared for that call and botched it terribly. I kept that bug in the back of my mind for a few years, and later when a company moved me to Utah for a tech job, I ended up hanging on the periphery of the Indie Film crowd. I went to a very professional Short Film Fest in Nevada, and decided I would make one for a Utah fest. The topic of the short was supposed to be something ...
