Good morning and a blessed weekend to you, good people of Nigeria. Hope we're all good. Straight to the point. I wrote a novel (20k words) during the Lockdown/ASUU strike. Before now, I've written many short stories and won some literary competitions with them, but this particular one was specifically written for financial purpose. This is the first time I want to go beyond the normal write&post I've been doing for years now, that's why I need experienced persons to help put me through. I'm really nervous (more like being scared), although I have a conviction that it'll end well. I called a publishing company who asked me to get a lecturer to do the vetting (corrections and rearrangements) for me. I already contacted an ELS lecturer in my school who agreed to do it (10k after I pleaded). The company asked me to come back to them when he's done. That aside, I still need suggestions on how to go about on: low expenses and total costs, promotion after it's been done and how to make profit from it. I'll also appreciate if someone puts me through on how to sell on Amazon and other marketing sites. It's a story about a young boy who, just like others, travelled from the village to the city in search of greener pastures. His struggles and how it finally ended. It's really worthwhile. |

I would like to learn too. Concerning Amazon, you need to have the manuscript and book cover designs then go to https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/GCAMZS55VGYBQVEG and sign up. It's a really straight forward process. |

sammnatt I saw your email notification weeks ago For personal reasons I've stopped responding to mails cos in the past some folks tried to unmask my identity for some not so good reasons and given the circumstances of my situation I realised I should have used a new account with anonymous email to register for the purpose of my diary. Anyways long story short You can respond here to this mention and we can communicate on this dead thread or mail me at drsleep036atgmaildotcom Cheers |
