I've decided to give the Small Press Operating Manual away for free from the Moonstruck website. Running a press and drowning in admin? Thinking about moving from self publishing to selling for others? This might help. Download for free from the link below www.moonstrucksoftware.com/freebook

If you publish audio through ACX, check your July statements before you pay anyone. Their new royalty model changed the statement layout, and figures taken from the summary tab can come out 66% lower. I said in May this wouldn't be a problem. I was wrong. www.moonstrucksoftware.com/post/acx-s-n...

So, I did a thing. It started with a series of blog posts, that was supposed to turn into a 20 page how to guide and instead became a full sized book because I realise that no one ever talks about how you do this stuff properly and so many small presses manage by trial and error

This (along with the book review I posted earlier) has really made my day. When an indie press titan like Jen from Raw Dog Screaming Press gives an endorsement like this, it makes 3 years of design and development worthwhile

🖋️📖💰 - #indiepublisher #indieauthorlife I've run a small press for over 15 years and one of the biggest pains is the royalty run each month. It can take hours extracting the info you need from spreadsheets. So, I wrote a tool that does it automatically for KDP. And I'm giving it away free.

Chucked my first draft into an epub, uploaded it to my kindle and am ploughing through it as a reader for the first time. Not too bad so far. Bit wordy at times. Possibly use "fuck" as punctuation too often. But so far structure is good and it's made me laugh.

Phew. 2500 words down today. Some of them even in the correct order. That brings "By Dawn's Early Light" up to around 30k. Managed to slot in a character that won't be used again for probably two years but quietly sets up two other books. On a roll!

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up about an Australian based POD company called Books.by that appear to be scammers. At first glance, they seemed to offer a good service - the ability to sell POD books direct from your own website, with them printing and fulfilling the orders.
