Description: Do you have a polished manuscript that you and your critique partners love, but it hasn’t found a home with a traditional publisher? You can bring your book to market using Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, and Draft2Digital. We’ll cover all the steps between having a finished manuscript and making your book available online and to bookstores everywhere.
