Publishing On A Budget

I am not selling anything.  That is right.  I am not selling anything, except the books I write.

I am here to tell you that you, yes you can get published this month and it will not cost more than $20.00, unless you want to spend more.

I am writing a short story every month till 2015.  My Goal is to get 50 E-books on line by 2015.  I have disconnected my cable.  No TV for me.  That is what was zapping most of my writing time.

1.  I have someone to format my stories for Kindle.  Cost me $10.00

2.  I bought one book cover and am using the same cover for each story in that series.  check out http://mevszombies.blogspot.com  or go to www.amazon.com/author.sharonleejohnson to see all my books  I use the same cover and then change the title.  Total cost for cover $50.00 for 12 title changes.

3.  You do not need a book cover....You can always upload one later. 

4.  In reality all you need is to format your file so you can upload it on Kindle.  You can do this yourself, I have someone do it for me, cause it is only $10.00.  So in reality, if you format the file yourself it will cost you nothing to get published this month.  What are you waiting for???

5.  I am writing a series Me VS Zombies.  I have written another series Zombie Zoo  http://zombiezoothebook.blogspot.com   or http://sharonleejohnspon.com

6  My stories are around 10,000 words each episode  I have Episode 7 out Zombies Changed the Landscape  www.amazon.com/dp/B00D4DLNBA The next one Episode 8 will be out June 28.  I have Episodes 9,10, &11 written and being editted.

7.  I spend all my free time writing.  I consider my writing is my second job, soon to be my only job.  I am a published writer. 

8.  You are the only person stopping you from being published.  It is not the money, or the time.  Give something up that is taking time away from your writing.  Mine was TV.

9.I am all about saving money, remember you are a writer and you might be able to claim it on your taxes and deduct the expenses.  Consult your tax person

10.  Start today and Get Published Today  What is stopping you???

I have blogged today.  Check out my other  Blog   I am blogging a scripture a day on the Devotional I am working on.  Jesus said, Go ye into the world, and preach the Gospel.  I feel that is what I am doing by blogging.  Believe it or not, I am getting other countries to my Christian Blog than I am from the USA, which is good.  So I am reaching people all over the world from blogging.  If you want to reach readers from around the world, might want to start blogging.   Blogger  is free and very easy to use.  I have been using Blogger since 2011.  I know a lot of writers have switched to  Word Press  It is a learning curve for me, and I am getti
