I’ve been telling myself not to make any mistakes which I can learn from so I write down on my notebook to solve my own issues

Thanks! For author’s who don’t have time to read their competition, listen to them on audiobooks while you do other things. Professional authors and narrators, it’s entertaining, and it helps your own writing!

I hadn't thought to put sections of my book online, I've heard that any form of self-publishing makes a book ineligible for a traditional deal.

Thanks for all the tips! I struggle with finding an audience because I am writing a memoir and or self help about my disabilities. It's a dark story and most people outside of the people like me or even certain healthcare professionals can't handle it. Any suggestions for that? Thank you.

Thank you for this essential and encouraging advice. It all makes sense. How can one find a Beta-Reader? It seems more intimidating than a blind date.

Uninteresting. These 4 things aren’t really key concerns.
