When it comes to book publishing, there are 3 main models available: traditional, independent, and self. None is the best across the board. One is the best for each author and each book! 

I find it curious that still (and we've somehow made it to 2023), self-publishing (or hybrid publishing, or author-financed publishing, as it's sometimes referred to) is seen as "lesser than" by authors. 

In this episode of Write the Damn Book Already, I offer a perspective that might shift yours as well. Not because I'm trying to steer you in any specific direction or convince you of your best next step, but because the way we think of "self-financed" when it comes to publishing is so much different from the way we think about it in any other business!

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this. You can tag me on IG (@elizabethlyonsauthor), DM me, or email me ([email protected]).
