GOT QUESTIONS?
Here’s what other NEW published authors asked before joining DIY Self-Publishing Bootcamp:
Can I really create a book cover when I’m not a designer?
YES! I’ll teach you exactly how you create your books using simple, FREE online design software and stock imagery.
How much time do I need to invest in order to create and get my book up on Amazon?
It will take 4 weeks, but it’s self-paced, so you can do it at any time that suits you. I will send out a weekly email with the step-by-step videos along with the homework for you to complete before the next class.
I would recommend committing at least 30 minutes to 1 hour each week to work on your book project. Some of the modules are shorter, but others may take you longer.
Do I need to attend the class at certain time?
No! As this is self-paced, you will have the time to complete the modules at your own time and pace. No need to rush, but you should give yourself no more than a week.
What if I have questions while I’m going through the program? Where do I go to get help?
During your program, you will have email access to me. Simply send me your question and I will gladly send you feedback.
