Today was the third workshop on self-publishing that I have run and in the few months that I have been running them, CreateSpace; the paperback self-publishing arm of Amazon, has merged into KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) and everything is now done from the Amazon platform – including having author copies of books actually printed in the UK. The self-pub world is constantly evolving and progressing – which is both great and also frustrating for those of us who produce our own books.

Writing your book really is just the first stage of quite a complex process! It is, however, absolutely worth it.
