I feel like the list of things I need to do for this publishing process keeps getting longer, lol.

• Publish it!

• Decide where to publish (i.e. Amazon KDP, Apple Books, Barnes & Noble Press, etc.)

• https://blog.reedsy.com/best-self-publishing-companies/

• https://blog.reedsy.com/amazon-self-publishing/

• Check out Reedsy Discovery to get book reviews after publishing

• Add acknowledgments

• Upload book through EPUB to have it formatted before submitting the book to Amazon or any other platform.

• Participate in the “search inside this book” program on amazon

• Use Amazon KDP

• Use GoodReads after publishing: https://www.goodreads.com/author/program

• Add a disclaimer to the book about violence and suicide as well as look at how and what to include in a disclaimer. Since it is fiction the characters and situations are not tied to any person or event.

• Look at this book promotions site options: https://blog.reedsy.com/book-promotion-services/

• Try booktok

• Make a book trailer

• Write a Sequel in the meantime

• The list will go on and on as the publishing time gets close
