Manage episode 515921757 series 3579531
Self-publishing gives authors incredible freedom—but it’s not the right fit for everyone.
In this episode of Your Path to Book Publishing, we’ll look at a real-world example of an author who seemed ready to self-publish—until it became clear that wasn’t the best path for their goals.
You’ll learn:
- When self-publishing might hurt your author brand instead of helping it
 - What to consider before investing time and money into publishing on your own
 - How hybrid or traditional publishing could better align with your long-term goals
 - The key questions to ask before choosing your publishing path
 
The truth is, publishing a book is more than a creative project—it’s a business decision.
And sometimes, the smartest move is to pause, reassess, and choose the path that gives you both credibility and longevity.
