1/ #VoICE #SelfPublishing #UnderTheSun I don’t like the tone and tenor of the tweets on recent ‘piracy’ incident by the author of a book written by a veteran. Social Media has been used in a very filthy way and hundreds of veterans with zero understanding of publishing have been

2/ #SelfPublishing #UnderTheSun I promised ink signed messages and authors signature for all books preordered upto 20 Sep. I have received orders for 42 books since 28 Aug. These will be ink signed in a day. I have received few orders as ‘Birthday Return Gifts’ where refers paid
3/ for 10-15 books and filled in addresses of friends for dispatch. You can save trouble of making 10-15 individual payments to write 15 addresses. Just pay and message me on DM. Can forward all addresses on wapp to me. Just need your details to forward tracking number. Make best
1/ #SelfPublishing also means complete 360 degree management. Today is ‘sorting out’ day. 467 books to be sorted out for each reader with specific requests. Once sorting in batch of fifty books is done, I will take list of first fifty preorders and check each for ‘personalised’

1/ #UnderTheSun What a wonderful feeling seeing my own book printed and stacked for ‘final cutting’. My book ‘UNDER THE SUN’ finally sees light of the day. All copies ready for delivery as I write this tweet. We commence the ‘logistics’ part now and prepare for dispatch.
2/ The hard work, toil, frustration, challenges, stress, deadlines and interacting and handling numerous people on way to #SelfPublishing is something that we have institutionalised. We have a 89 page scrap book in which we noted any and everything along the journey. This is an
3/ absolute ‘must read’ for first time authors. Some extremely crucial meetings with ‘retailers’ or ‘book sellers’ was an eye opener. Without reading my work how the owners of book shops convinced me of how useless I was as an author, that ‘should be happy if few copies get sold’
1/ COST CUTTING FOURTH SUCCESS
Read threads with #SelfPublishing #CostCutting #UnderTheSun to understand cost cutting in self-publishing. When we started we were demoralised at Rs 6.1 lacs that came as cost to publish our book.

2/ #SelfPublishing #CostCutting #UnderTheSun Established publishers either did not want to touch a new author with a barge pole or wanted us to ‘bear cost’.
We were not ready to dilute the standards we had set for ourselves:
-Made In India paper (99% novels use imported paper).

"It’s mediaschmerz—a sadness about the news cycle and news media, which is distinct from the experience of our everyday life. I’m not sure if I think this is good or bad. It simply is. Individual hope and national despair are not contradictions." @DKThomp greeneracresvaluenetwork.wordpress.com/2022/06/02/dai…

Irgendwie hat mich das Bild angelacht, weil es voll positiver Energie ist. Man sieht uns den Spaß an.
Carina und ich sind einen langen, teils ähnlichen Weg gegangen, anfangs #Indie, übers @Nornennetzwerk, nun veröffentlichen wir beide bei Knaur. Wir standen uns nie im Weg,

Is it time for a reexamination of the system we’ve developed?
One of those assumptions is that #copyright is a way to incentivize cultural production, but history and empirical evidence shows us the optimal copyright term to incentivize production is only 15-25 years.
