Here’s a fun fact for you!
Our title, Liberty will be a year old on Monday. I still can’t believe it, but it has been a
year since we self published our first paranormal YA novel.
I know that Liberty was around way before her pub date, but
it is still just as exciting. We both
remember creating the cover, writing each chapter – rewriting each chapter, and
setting it out for query after query.
But after several months of giving the traditional road a try, we self
published.
I don’t really know how many people have read it as of yet,
but I would venture to say around a hundred or so. While we both had our reservations about self
publishing and using Amazon as an outlet to distribute our books, I can
honestly say now, I trust the process.
If you are on the fence about just letting it out there, I
would say go for it. But, like us, if
your dream is to have an agent and a publisher – don’t stop trying. Some day we will figure out how to sell our
story in three paragraphs on one page, when, I don’t know.
For now though, we will celebrate our book-a-versary and
keep working on the second Liberty – Sytes Awakening! Happy reading and writing!
