So I love reading through a Joanna Penn book! She is so informative and really walks through the steps on how to be a successful author! This is my second book from this author. Penn has experienced her success through trial and error and shares the principles and steps that made her become a six-figure salary author! I can learn a lot from someone whose been in the literary industry for more than a decade and has written 25+ books!! In this book "Successful Self-publishing" Penn even includes links and websites to more information not found on her pages.

What a fantastic esource. Short but somehow managed to pack in so much priceless information and tips.

I had the digital package at first, but bought the large format print book for quick reference and hand written notes.

I can't recommend it highly enough.

True North

A must have book! It's difficult to navigate the massive amounts of information and conflicting advice on self-publishing. Joanna Penn manages to condense a mountain of content into a comprehensive and concise guide, which is straight forward and easy to understand. Cut through the confusion and use this book as your truth north. Love how the options are presented and you make your own choices based on your goals and definition of success. I would have never been able to publish books without this fabulous resource and updated editions. This new edition is well worth the investment given how much has changed and the new complexities today in the author world whether indie, hybrid, or traditional. If you're just getting started or well on the author journey and want to upskill, this is a treasure of knowledge.
