Review: The Well-Fed Self-Publisher by P. Bowerman

The introduction speaks of "$11,000 in two months-for starters" and if that doesn't grab your attention then just hang on for it only gets better from there.

Written with an easy to read, friendly yet instructional approach, "The Well-Fed Self-Publisher" by Peter Bowerman, provides both new and experienced authors an ideal template that they can follow in order to achieve success with their own self-published work.

By going over a myriad of vital points such as why someone should self-publish, targeting the audience, building a book, ebooks, platforms, websites, distribution, print-on-demand, and more, Bowerman's book competently covers the bases of traditional self-publishing and provides a viable method for promising authors to use in order to hit that elusive 'home run' in publication.

But the book shouldn't be thought of as being just for 'traditional self-publishers' alone because authors who are considering publication via Independent Publishing (through fee-based POD services) could also gain an advantage from reading this book namely due to it's valuable information on various topics such as: titles and cover content, copyrighting, editing, reviews, bookstores, Amazon, media tactics, free publicity, and most importantly, sales and marketing in general.

Self-publishing is continually making positive gains in both acceptance and popularity and before any author decides to join the ranks of the 'newly self-published,' they would be very 'well-advised' to make sure they grab a copy of Peter Bowerman's "The Well-Fed Self-Publisher" before they do!

Great job, Peter!
