Self-Publishing Wizard or Wannabe: How to Hire the Best Editor, Designer, or Book Guide

This is the first book of its kind.

Written for authors and self-publishers, this pocket guide takes the worry out of hiring editors, book designers, and book-production freelancers who are true industry professionals--not wannabes.

Author Mary E. Neighbour draws upon thirty years of experience to invitingly and convincingly introduce authors to the intricate world of pub­lishing. Chapters deftly cover:

-Distinctions between wannabes and wizards

-Terminology used by professionals

-Publishing industry standards

-Signs of a true professional

-Sample questions to ask job candidates

-Notes pages, so this guide also serves as a workbook

Don't hire anyone until you read Wizard or Wannabe!
