Things I wish I knew before you ever publishing my first book...
1. Make a social media presence
2. Make friends with other authors (we support each other), share other authors books, I did do this one before I knew I was going to write
3. Review every book you read, you can't expect people to review you, if you never review anyone else (I have always done this, it's important)
4. Watch tons of how-to videos on Youtube about all the extras you need to know besides just writing your book (there is SO MUCH you need to know... especially if you will be an indie
5. Have a couple books done before you publish the first, releasing every couple months.
