You have your novel in your hand and you’re going to sit back and start collecting royalties. Maybe you’ll make some, but not a lot without your doing some hard work. Some writers think that all they have to do is create and the big three, Amazon, Barnes &Noble, plus Borders will make them a lot of money. We should be so lucky. With a regular publisher they will give you a short period of time to be a big splash in the market if you don’t hit their goals they won’t spend a great deal of money keeping your work on the front burner. With self publishing you can purchase some marketing packages however don’t rely just on their packages. You need to do presentations, interviews, find out who your novel’s market is and make sure they are aware of it in some way, shape or form. Yes, you must sell-sell-sell.
Are you willing to do the writing and then the real hard work? If so then I suggest you do as I did and take the plunge.
