How to get a book published

From Writer's Digest:

..............................................

In times of self-publishing, making a book available in major ebookstores takes literally a couple of minutes.

Is publishing a book that easy?

Zachary Petit, senior managing editor of Writer's Digest, prepared a fabulous (and very amusing to study) flowchart that describes all the elements of getting publishing a book.

You have to have a distance yourself to make things happen and overcome lots of problems that will appear on the way to the "Buy my book" button.

So, is publishing a book easy?

The answer is "yes" – on the condition that you really, really enjoy what you're doing.

Having self-published a book earlier this year, I consider "You will have to make things happen and overcome lots of problems that will appear on the way to the 'Buy my book' button" the understatement of all time.

And I had the great good fortune to have the indomitable Diana Brewster putting every bit of wood she could muster behind my arrow.
