Having No Guidance when I began writing my book, I dove into Google Docs and ended up with over 800 pages, with hundreds of Pictures throughout the manuscript. (It is now split into 2 books and I am working with the first.) But...as I went along and Learned more, I realized that I had created a Monster, because Now I have Converted it into several other formats in order to FIX The Mistakes! And I have Failed! I tried PDF and that was useless. Made it into a DOCX file and tried to use Autocrit...then a ODT file and Reedsy is just a Mess! Everything "looks" okay on Google Docs, but when it is saved as anything else it is Horrible and I Can't Fix it in Any format! Now what?!

Hello friends! As my book moves into the design phase, I’m starting to build my email list and gently introduce it to future readers. To do that, I’ve created a lead magnet that includes:• A sample chapter• A behind-the-scenes look at how the book was developed• A feel for my overall writing style I also write regularly on my blog, and this is part of helping people experience the voice before the book officially launches. Here’s my ask:Would you be willing to sign up, read the sample chapter, and share your honest first impressions? Your feedback will help me refine both the content and the reader experience. Here's the link I truly appreciate the support. Thank you so much.

I am exploring the editing process with a local expert. They are offering to edit for 4cents per word. This seems like a reasonable value with their expertise, but how far down the road does one go with editing? Also, does @Book Launchers Team accept edits from other professionals? Thank you! 🙏🏽

Can someone please give me the rundown on Julie the Book Bot, or direct me to where I can read more about it! Thanks Guys!

I tell everyone; I’ve said it once, I’ve said it 100 times, and I’ll keep saying it forever. Read what you write, THEN, re-read it out loud. Say the words you have written as though you are reading your story to another person. I guarantee you will be shocked with what you hear, and the immediate improvements you can make. I don’t know why it works, but it always does 🤷‍♂️ So get reading out loud and see what you think? 📖
