Quick fixes to keep your DIY book on track
Get expert, bite-sized support for your book marketing, cover, and self-publishing files – so you can keep momentum and reach more readers.
Writing your book was a huge accomplishment.
But self-publishing? That’s a whole new mountain to climb.
And here’s the truth: most books don’t fail because they’re badly written. They fail because they stay invisible.
DIY authors often get stuck at crucial points—marketing, cover design, or technical file prep—and lose momentum. That’s where Author Checkups come in.
These short, focused sessions are designed to:
-
Spot the issues holding your book back
-
Give you quick, actionable fixes
-
Help you keep moving forward with confidence
Think of them as small but powerful boosts on your self-publishing journey.
