The 5 Most Common Questions of First-Time Authors

On Good Authority: Publishing the Book that Will Build Your Business

Aug 3 2022 • 15 mins

Today, in this solo episode, I'm answering the five most common questions first-time authors have. They are:

  • Do I need a copyright for my book?
  • How many copies of my book will be printed?
  • If I launched a book, and I didn't sell many copies, should I relaunch it?
  • Should I sell my book only on Amazon?

Forgive me, that's four. I honestly thought when I recorded it that it was five. I am truly this bad with numbers. Good thing I can do words, no?
