  • Do I need to use a different ISBN for each retailer when publishing on Kindle and other platforms?
  • How can I create a legal disclaimer for a memoir written as fiction?
  • Is it possible to retain rights to my characters and book world when negotiating with a traditional publisher
  • What is the best way to get peer feedback on alternative cover designs for my upcoming book?
