There are different types of publishing processes. As promised, I’m back to discuss Independent Publishing, Independent Authors (Indie Authors) and Pure Self-publishing. I’m tying this in one post because Indie Authors and Self-published Authors are sometimes referred to as the same but I want to demystify that. I’m also attaching Independent Publishing as it serves Indie Authors. I aim to bring out the difference with pure self-publishing.
