It’s not asking for charity — it’s a powerful marketing and pre-order sales tool

I am learning so much right now.
Just so much.
It all started with the modest goal of writing a children’s book about opossums and then publishing and selling it. No big deal. Lots of people do that.
Not everyone goes the traditional publishing route — there are many reasons for that, but this post is not about that.
Not everyone produces a high quality, beautifully illustrated, educational book that can be enjoyed by parents and children, which they then manage to sell and maybe even have a tiny little bit of profit left over in the end.

Welcome to the third installment of my journey to self-publishing my first children’s book, Opossum Opposites. I started this project a few months ago and I’ve learned so much already. But, as with many industries, the more I learn, the more I find out I need to learn.
