    @germaine-han Trad-publishing is a great option! Especially for your first book. You don’t have to pay for any of the book production, it reduces some of the risk of publishing a bad book, and, depending on the situation, may help you sell more books.

    For a first book, I’m kinda divided over whether self-publishing or trad-publishing is better, though I do think once you have a large following self-publishing is just way too good to pass up. You can produce exactly the same quality and at least double your income. You could earn even 3 or 4 or 5 times as much. (Actually, if we only look at ebooks, trad-published royalties for a $9.99 ebook [why do they always charge so much???? Silly publishers] would be about $1 while going indie you’d earn $7.)
