Self-Publishing v. Traditional Publishing

Self-Publishing v. Traditional Publishing

What are the differences between traditional publishing and self-publishing?

Where do the two converge?

Where do they stand distinct?

What if your book is non-fiction or fiction?

How does this affect they way to seek to bring it to print?

How do you balance marketing your book–fiction or non-fiction–with writing the book?

Can authenticity and embedding a bit of yourself–who you truly are–in your promotion tactics create an effective marketing strategy, one that pays off in both the establishment of your brand, and achieves the sale of books?
