The Indie Author Revolution

If you’ve got passion, a plan, and persistence, you don’t need an agent. The Indie Author Revolution: An Insider’s Guide to Self-Publishing is your friendly guide to the new era of self-publishing. Everything you need to create a quality book is within your reach, including editors, designers, printers, mentoring presses, e-books, and social media.

• All the key areas of self-publishing success–from vetting your manuscript ideas to crafting your publishing plan for both print and electronic books.
• Advice, tips, and tools from real-life indie authors and book publishing professionals to help you avoid missteps in writing, publishing, and marketing.
• The pros and cons of doing it yourself, working with an indie press, and everything between.

April Michelle Davis spent several weeks writing the index for this book. While computers and software programs can write a concordance, only trained individuals can write an index. April Michelle, a trained indexer, will read the page proofs of the publication and write an alphabetical list of references based on the terms and concepts she explores in the text. April Michelle will select, group, and consolidate page references under main headings and subheadings, and write cross-references to guide the readers to specific information. April Michelle showcased this book through the index that she wrote.
