Two words, \u201cwriter\u2019s suicide\u201d pretty much summed it up. Even readers were leery of reading self-published authors. I sure as heck never thought I\u2019d self publish. Yet, here I am with two books self-published and another on the way. Why did I decide to self-publish? Because self-publishing has changed. No longer is self-publishing about printed books that never sell, it\u2019s about ebooks. Not surprising, the world is on an ebook craze and it\u2019s only going to grow, as is self-publishing ebooks!<\/p>\n<p>One reason readers try self-published books is because they\u2019re much cheaper than those New York published. And if you only read New York published authors, fear not, they\u2019re jumping on the self-publishing bandwagon too! Some are publishing anthologies; some are publishing their backlists, those books that were published by New York years ago, but no longer available.<\/p>\n<p>I realize that a lot of people are leery of self-publishing, so I\u2019m here to tell you about some of the self-published authors who are making waves.<\/p>\n<p>Willing to test the water?

So many times in novella\u2019s you feel like you\u2019re missing out. Not so here! The characters are well developed and the plot lines interesting. So, if you\u2019ve been thinking about trying ebooks, these short novellas are easy enough to read on computers or eReaders.
