10 Reasons why you have to self-publish your book
1. You don't have to beg anyone to publish your book, that is you don't have to convince anyone
about the quality of your book.

2. You are the boss, you have absolute control over the whole process of publishing -cover
design, layout, editing, marketing, etc.

3. Strike it rich-You make more money with self publishing, while most of the commercial
publishers offer you 5-15% of the cover price, you may get as much as 80% of the cover price as
profit.

4. You work at your own pace- while most publishers take between 6-18 months to publish, you
can come out with your book few weeks after writing.

5. Your book get to the market faster than when its publish by publishing company.

6. Publish as your pocket allows, reprint as at and when you wish.

7. Inner satisfaction and fulfillment, having your own written and published book on your hand
brings fulfillment and joy.

8. You acquire valuable experience along the route to self-publishing your book. You learn a bit
of cover designing, arranging, editing, proof-reading printing, etc.

the author of book, good cover and quality printing.

10. Go ahead and publish your own books. Beat procrastination!
