As of April 18, 2018 writers who self publish with Create Space will have to do more of their own work or pay for those services that Create Space no longer provides.
Too bad for me, the procrastinator. I had planned to publish a couple of short books through Create Space.
Tara Lynne sent her good news in her newsletter today.
Through her use of Linkedin she has landed a job with “one
of the largest mutual fund companies in the world.” Congratulations, Tara Lynn!
We have
been fortunate to have Tara Lynne Groth teach some classes at Writers Circle around the Table, and she
was well-received as a speaker at our Day for Writers in Sylva, NC in 2017. This young woman
is extremely knowledgeable about the freelance world and the modern methods of
marketing. I hope she will have time to come back to our region before too
long.
Tara Lynne will be changing the focus of her
writing business now. Read about what she will be doing in her newsletter whichyou can find online.
She has a new collection of short stories ready to shop to publishers soon. I have her book, Magazine Queries that Worked, only 6.99 in print now at Amazon.com. This book should be on the shelf of all who want to write and sell articles for magazines or newspapers.

ReplyDeleteI've been looking at Book Baby as a vendor to prep and publish my novella as an e-book only. Need to do more research on user reviews but they seem plausible for e-books because they publish on Amazon and other platforms.
Don't know about author support but that was something I was planning to utilize on Amazon. If they get out of it, someone else will step up, hopefully. Authors are totally on their own now for every step of publishing and promoting their books!
