How to Avoid Book Publishing Blunders is a must-have book for writers looking toward publishing their first books and for experienced indie authors. I found golden nuggets of information Ms. Briles shared throughout the book from favorite tools to use, links to helpful sites, and sensible advice such as "Perfection is a form of procrastination." The biggest eye-opener for me was when she permitted me to recognize that I am an expert in my topic. I will be adding expert to all of my bio information from now on. I appreciate the easy-to-read, concise tips to avoid publishing blunders. You will too.
