Being An Indie Author Can’t Be That Hard, Right?So you want to be an indie author. Or maybe you’re scared to do it all yourself and are looking for a publisher, but want to know more about the nuts and bolts of the book business. Either way, this book is for you.Scott is a thirty-year small press veteran who shares his knowledge-from the snarky to the sublime-and answers your questions: What should you consider before you start to write? What about when you get stuck? And what can you do when you start doubting yourself? This book is filled with practical advice, candid explanations, and emotional support for any writer navigating today’s complicated publishing business, helping you to stay sane and define for yourself what being a 'successful writer' means.In your career, you’ll have highs and lows. It’s important to put all the highs in a bottle and save them. And when the publishing world gets you down, pull it out and suck a little happy juice.'If I ever go off course, I will refer back to this guide to keep me going. The book’s strength lies in its ability to demystify the writing and publishing process, making it a trustworthy companion for writers facing challenges. 5 Stars.' -Jaqueline Neves, Readers’ Favorite'Suck a Little Happy Juice is the kind of advice title one wishes every aspiring writer had in hand. Whether it’s addressing getting ready to write or giving concrete examples contrasting tepid writing with captivating alternative approaches and revisions, Coatsworth sets aside ethereal advice in favor of the concrete examples writers need in order to prove more effective and hone their skills.. If libraries and readers were to select just a few titles on the subject of becoming an author, Suck a Little Happy Juice should be at the top of the list.' --Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review
