Your Work Is Not Safe | What you should know before self publishing
🛑 If you are an AUTHOR, or thinking about self publishing, I suggest you STOP and read this. (*sigh*, this book was stolen too)This is not a fiction novel, but a scarily true account of how authors all over the internet are having their works stolen, redistributed, edited and plagiarised, 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑖𝑛𝑔. WHAT I WISH I HAD HAVE KNOWN, BEFORE SELF-PUBLISHING ON WATTPAD:If you are a keen writer and are looking for a starting place to dip your toes into the world of publishing, you are not alone. I was once in your shoes as well. However the internet is a nasty place out there, and no matter how much research you do, if you are like me, you might have missed potentially the most important deciding point of all. "If I'd have known my hard work, blood sweat and tears, would be so carelessly copy and pasted elsewhere without me even knowing, I would have thought twice about where I chose to publish my work." Read about how works all over Wattpad and other self-publishing platforms are being redistributed without authors' consent. ***This book also contains a step-by-step guide to publishing on Amazon KDP.***Please share this to as many people as you can, to get the word out, for those who are unknowing victims of theft, just like I was, for 11 whole months. ~~~ First Published on:Tuesday 3rd of May, 2022~~~
Publishing Your Book? Traditional or Self-Publish?
After seeing fellow writers on Wattpad talk about their dreams of publishing, I decided to post a guide on what I understand about the publishing process based on my experiences, the books I've read and the resources available out there.
