Editor’s note: If you’re waiting for our monthly Ebook Cover Design awards post, it will be along in a couple of hours.

Have you had trouble figuring out what all the players in the publishing process actually do? Or had trouble determining which professionals work with self-published authors? Or have you spent too many hours trying to track these folks down?

If so, today’s a good day for you.

Betty Sargent and I are pleased to announce that today is publication day for the new edition of The Self-Publisher’s Ultimate Resource Guide: Every Indie Author’s Essential Directory To Help You Prepare, Publish, and Promote Professional Looking Books.

The 2016 edition has new essays from two dozen of the top providers in the indie publishing community like Mark Coker of Smashwords on “How to use an e-book distributor to reach more readers,” Ingram‘s Robin Cutler on “What is book distribution, anyway?” and over 20 more.

Added to the 850+ curated and verified listings sorted into 35 easy to understand categories, the Resource Guide is a unique compendium of knowledge along with the links that let you put your publishing plan into action.

Of course, in the ebook version, all these links are “live” so you can click through to any listed site.

From the authors: Nobody paid us to be listed in the Resource Guide, and we don’t accept any advertising.

What we are trying to do is save you time, make your book better, and give you a helping hand along the way if you’re new to book publishing.

Considering the ebook costs only $7.99, I think this is quite a deal.

Purchase the Resource Guide at these Retailers

The book is currently available in Kindle and ePub versions. The paperback edition is also available now on Amazon, and will appear on other retailers quite soon.

(Yes, I’m a little behind on production. I bet this wouldn’t have happened if I had used BookPlanner!)

Launch Special

I promised a special offer to go with our launch, and here it is, bigger and better than last year:

Every buyer of any format of The Self-Publisher’s Ultimate Resource Guide is eligible to receive a coupon worth $20 off anything on my Book Design Templates site, where you can get predesigned book templates for both Microsoft Word and Adobe InDesign, as well as help in putting them to use.

This offer expires on February 22, 2016.

How to collect?

  1. Purchase the book,
  2. Forward the sales receipt you received that shows the title or ISBN to [email protected]
  3. Once we have your receipt you’ll receive your coupon by email
  4. Head over to BookDesignTemplates.com and start shopping.
  5. When you’re ready to check out, you’ll see a “Discount Code” field in your shopping cart. Put your coupon code in that field and click the “Update Cart” button to get your $20 savings.

$20.00 in exchange for $7.99? You might call me crazy, but I know that you are crucial to the success of the Guide. Every satisfied reader will help to spread the word, and that was the whole point of our overhaul for 2016.

Reviewers

We’re still looking for more reviewers. This is your chance. If you’d like to review the new 2016 edition, we’d love to send you a copy!

Just use the contact form here and follow the instructions. (This link is valid only until February 22, 2016.)

Thanks!
