Something we often forget to do is to check things that we already think are working. Sadly with Wordpress, Mail Providers and eBook Retailers things outside our control (usually a change somewhere else) can break things without you doing anything. So you need to check things occasionally to ensure they are still working.
Self-Publishing in India with Amar Vyas
In this interview I talk with the host of the MyKitaab Podcast and self-published Indian Author Amar Vyas about self-publishing in India.
Organising a Mega-Book Launch with Kate Erickson
In this episode I am blessed to have on one half of the duo who make up the core of the EOFire organisation, Kate Erickson. Together with her partner John Lee Dumas they released the Freedom Journal at the start of this year to great success after running one of the best ever book Kickstarter launches (7,063 backers pledged $453,803) and have continued their success after the launch.
Self-Publishing for Quality
The other major motive for self-publishing is self-publishing for quality, that is using it as a way to produce the best possible product.

But in reality there is an awful lot to be said for this approach to self-publishing.
Revisiting the Reedsy Book Editor April 2016
It’s been a while since I had a look at the Reedsy Book Editor (in my episode on 17th February) and I’d thought I’d re-examine it and update you on the progress on the product. I did slightly rush to review it when it came out so I think it is only fair that I do a brief show every now and then to see how they are progressing with it.
Creating a CreateSpace Paperback-Ready Word Document from Scrivener
In this episode I take you through a process I have recently worked out to almost be able to create a CreateSpace paperback-ready word document from Scrivener using it’s compile settings. If it wasn’t almost then I would be creating a PDF directly from Scrivener and not using Word at all. However at least on the Windows version of Scrivener (which has less features than the Mac version) it doesn’t seem possible to create the file directly from Scrivener. That said I quite like the fact that I have a final document which I can compile and amend as I need.
