Ep 48. What is the Process of Publishing Your Own Book? Ft. Rahel Tesfaledet

Happy Halloween! 🎃

Teachers, have you ever considered writing your own book? A novel, or perhaps a children book? Have you ever had that desire, but just have no idea where to start? Well you came to the right place!

Today, I bring in Rahel Tesfaledet, author of Kinza's World Magical Travel Adventures! Besides being a published author, Rahel is also an elementary school teacher and has been teaching for 10 years. Her passion for travelling has allowed her to teach in school boards in South Korea, Japan, Kuwait, and the U.S, and this year is teaching in York Region in Ontario.

Today we talk about:

1. What is the difference between going with a publisher company vs self publishing?
2. What are the different steps to self publishing?
3. How much does publishing your book cost?
4. How much do retailers take from your book sales?
5. What are the major road blocks to getting your book on shelves?

Instead of taking your kids trick or treating, curl up with the kids and listen to this podcast!
