Self-Publishing Handbook
I then usually enquire, “So how are you going to
have the book edited and printed?” And, this then
puts an end to the ridiculous discussion.
I pride myself in paying all the service providers
in my publishing ecosystem. And am grateful that
I value my craft and have made lots of sacrifices to
contribute, meaningfully, towards making the
business professional and viable. This is without
ignoring the fact that I am also called to act kindly
to those who cannot afford my services.
Book Writing Experience
The effort of writing a book is only attractive once
the physical copy is in your hand. Before then, it is
a gruelling process. Each book that you write has
a higher purpose that is often beyond your human
understanding. Therefore, the writer has to be
open to what the book is meant to achieve.
When a book is meant to change the writer, the
emotional implications may take a toll on them,
sometimes even causing them to abort the project.
If you are able to endure the process, then you
emerge a much stronger writer, with enriched
content. When I wrote my first book in 2010, a
simple coffee table recipe book, the idea was to
document my legacy for my children.
