Your first romance book launch can have a plan

A first self-publishing launch comes with a lot of decisions, and many of them feel strangely high stakes when you’re making them alone.

Editing. Covers. Formatting. Retailers. Preorders. Metadata. ARC readers. Launch-day emails. The list can make it seem as if you need to become a full-time project manager before anyone lets you call yourself an author.

You don’t.

You need a clear order of operations, room to make thoughtful choices, and support when you hit the bits that make you want to lie down on the kitchen floor for a while.
