Writing Tip Number One

If you are wanting to self publish your story, it is possible.

Tip Number One is that you do not need a book cover for an E-Book.  Though I would not recommend that it.  You do not need a book cover to publish your book on kindle.  You can always up load a book cover later.

For me budgeting is the number one problem I have, besides finding time to write, promote and edit.  All of this takes time out of our day and if you are working a full time job it is a lot harder to find the time to do everything.

I am self published writer.  I haved learned this process, as I went along.  I am going to share with you what I learned. 

You will not get rich quick, by publishing it yourself, but if you are a writer and want to make a career out of being a writer, I will tell you what I have learned.


I published a short story on Zombie Zoo  www.amazon.com/dp/B006K7CVLS  and all I spent was $10.00. 

I had a co-worker draw the cover.  I scanned the picture into the computer and uploaded it.  I paid someone to format my file and that cost $10.00  My short story was around 5,000 words.

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Work Ethic

What is your work ethic????  It might get that book written sooner. I admit that televison is my distraction from writing.  I can not write in the living room, where the telvision is staring at me.  I know it talks to me.  Maybe your distraction is something dirrerent.  The dishes calling you to wash them or those dust bunnies talkling to you.  Whatever it is we need to stop listening to them. I always plan on writing more than I do.  I came home from work yesterday, and had plans to write, then I ate and started flipping channels and then the time slipped by and I didn't write anything.  I think it all come down to one's work ethic.  Some have one and some don't. I think I am one of them that does not have a strong work ethic.  The fact that I want my book finished, is what motivates me.  I want to be a writer, so I write. http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/
