Human editors are an absolute necessity! It doesn’t matter how many times you run your manuscript through one of the excellent “editing“ programs, until you have a separate pair of human eyes on those pages, it will never be just right. I found that out when I went through an editor and although I thought I was near perfect, she found some things that would have been embarrassing if I had just gone ahead and published. Bullet successfully dodged thanks to my editor!

Aloha Dale, thanks so much for your videos. Always helpful. As a newbie to Indie Publishing, I'm a bit confused as to the regulations of KDP. If I publish a book with them, am I allowed to publish same book with Book Baby or other?
