I had an idea for the cover, but I just couldn&#8217;t get it to look like anything other than a jumbled mess.<\/p>\n<p>But, I kept at it, found some online tutorials, learned some new tricks, and in the end, came up with what I think is my coolest cover yet.<\/p>\n<p>After that, there was the 3D book cover (luckily I found a Photoshop action for that). Then creating the book&#8217;s page on my website (complete with all the buy links to various online bookstores), which also needed a corresponding slide image for my homepage. Then I made a new Facebook cover photo to promote the book, plus a mini book ad to share on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Then, the uploading. Sure, most of that was copying and pasting the book descriptions and such &#8211; and even though I uploaded directly to the Kindle store, I used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.draft2digital.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Draft2Digital<\/a> to hit up <strong>Kobo, B&amp;N, Scribd<\/strong> and the <strong>Apple<\/strong> store (saves me time and frustration). But it all takes time, you see.<\/p>\n<p>Then&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.patreon.com\/maryrajotte\" target=\"_blank\">Patreon<\/a>. There are the update posts, where I announce releases or rewards to the general public, plus ones for patrons.<\/p>\n<p>And that doesn&#8217;t take into account all the extras (like behind-the-scenes posts like <strong>Inklings<\/strong>; <strong>Altered Words<\/strong> poems &#8211; which time in and of themselves to &#8220;find&#8221; a poem in any given work; <strong>Spirited Tales<\/strong>, which not only take time to write &amp; edit but to also translate into video format; plus this month I&#8217;m giving out a <strong>free flash fiction<\/strong> tale, which I&#8217;ve also had to write, edit, format, make an ebook cover and blog posts for).<\/p>\n<p>Cripes. I&#8217;m exhausted. I spent 5 hours today alone making, pre-posting and scheduling promotional things &#8211; and some of the graphic design work was already done. It was just a matter of tweaking and making various images &amp; pre-writing patron perks.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not complaining, really I&#8217;m not. I just wanted to offer a glimpse into the self-publishing side of things. I&#8217;m sure there are other things I&#8217;m not doing, doing poorly, or forgetting about (no matter how many checklists and Google Calendar reminders I set for myself).<\/p>\n<p>Writing the story &#8211; coming up with the idea, adding characters &amp; setting, making it MAKE SENSE, making sure it&#8217;s entertaining &#8211;\u00a0 is a whole other can of worms.<\/p>\n<p>But as you can see, there is a lot going on behind-the-scenes, not just for me but all of my fellow writers. We work hard, man. But boy, do we love it.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">Except for the stories that fall flat, the self doubt, the low sales, the unruly characters&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A brief glimpse behind-the-scenes of a self-publishing newbie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[4],"tags":[327,324,251,63],"class_list":["post-3016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-on-writing","tag-ebooks","tag-patreon","tag-self-publishing","tag-the-lockwood-collection"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>WIP Wednesday - A Writer&#039;s Work - MaryRajotte.com<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/maryrajotte.com\/blog\/2014\/07\/09\/wip-wednesday-a-writers-work\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"WIP Wednesday - A Writer&#039;s Work - MaryRajotte.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A brief glimpse behind-the-scenes of a self-publishing newbie\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/maryrajotte.com\/blog\/2014\/07\/09\/wip-wednesday-a-writers-work\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"MaryRajotte.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/maryrajotte\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2014-07-09T19:09:45+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2017-03-15T16:36:38+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mary\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mary\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/maryrajotte.com\/blog\/2014\/07\/09\/wip-wednesday-a-writers-work\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/maryrajotte.com\/blog\/2014\/07\/09\/wip-wednesday-a-writers-work\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Mary\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/maryrajotte.com\/blog\/#\/schema\/person\/38e89cfcbaef29fc7e8e84a7098e0ab5\"},\"headline\":\"WIP Wednesday &#8211;
