Did you publish through a traditional publisher, self-publishing, print-on-demand?
I self-published.

Why did you choose this route?
I did some research and discovered that ebook publishing was an affordable way to get your books out there your way.

How was the experience?
The first time I did run into trouble with a different company, but with 4 Paws it has worked out.

Would you do it again and why?
Yes, because I’m going to be a best-seller someday.

My latest book is called "Remember Me Now, Part 1. Since I was young, I've looked for ways to write about the bullying I suffered growing up. As I got older and started to forgive, I realized that the most healing way was to write about the pain. Is to create beauty. That's why I wrote Remember Me Now, that's where the first sentence came from. Painful truth, and memories I've blocked out that I want to be able to gain access too. I wanted to create a love story, because when I was young and was constantly being told that I was ugly. I knew that those people didn't think I'd ever find someone to love me. I started writing for Ansley, and for Chase.
I created beauty.
"Remember Me Now, Part 1" is now live on iTunes.

1. How did you publish? Please keep out publishing companies names but let us know:

Did you publish through a traditional publisher, self-publishing, print-on-demand?

I started part of my book, "Disappearing Mailboxes of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia" with a magazine article published by Saltscapes. At the same time I sent my book to 4 Paws Games and Publishing.

2. Why did you choose this route?
The response to my magazine article was enthusiastic, so people may like the idea of a book on that theme.

3. How was the experience? Did you run into troubles? Did you find it easy?
At first I self-published "Disappearing Mailboxes" with lulu.com. It looked nice, but there weren't any sales. Hopefully, 4 Paws will help me sell my book.

Never double space between hyphens because they are meant to "glue" words together.
Ex. 300-400 lizards, three-year-old, 8:00-8:40.
