Member Blog Instructions
All registered users have the ability to add blog posts to the site. To do so:
1. Register.
2. Go to “My Blogs” in the top navigation.
3. Select “Self-Publishing Review,” then “New Post” in the drop down menu.
4. Otherwise, go directly to www.selfpublishingreview.com/wp-admin and select “Add New.”
5. Start blogging.
New posts are moderated. Some member posts will be bumped up to the front page as featured posts.
Note on blogging: You can cross-post from your own site or write something original. Posts will possibly be edited for content – including adding an image and other minor editing. The site generally frowns on content that’s overly sales-driven (My book/product/service is awesome because…) and prefers blog entries to be at least 300 words long. Post opinion pieces, industry news, how-to’s…

1. How did you come to self-publish? Did you try to get published
traditionally?

3. What avenues have you taken to market the book? Have you gotten
reviews, interviews, TV, print media coverage?
4. What drove you to write this particular book?
5. Is the book in any one particular genre? Is it a genre that’s familiar
to you?
6. Who are your greatest writing influences?
7. What’s your writing regimen? Any tips for keeping focused?
8. Would you self-publish again?
