I’d Rather Be Read

Posted by By Barb Meyers November 24, 2018Posted inbooks, Good Books, Independent Publishing, Publishing, Rants, Reading, Writing1 Comment
It’s one thing for a publisher to undervalue an author, but it seems to me, it’s quite another for the author to undervalue his/herself and his/her work. Ask anyone who’s tried to write a book. It is not an easy thing. Well, not an easy thing if you want to write a good book.
