Over the years, I've written/co-authored and/or ghosted 16 books, all published in the traditional way-with a signed contract from a well-known publishing house and an advance. Once I handed in my completed manuscript, my work was more or less done, except for any interviews the publishing house might arrange. This year I stepped into the brave new world of self, aka "indie," publishing. What I learned right away was that completing a manuscript is only Step One. The rest could fill a book-and, in fact, does, in the recently released Publishing Architect's Blueprint: Self-Publishing Fundamentals, which covers everything from manuscript preparation to correctly pricing the work to choosing the distribution channels that will make the book available internationally and much more.
