Guide to Self-Publishing

Written for experts, coaches, consultants, and entrepreneurs who have knowledge worth sharing, this is the encouraging, no-nonsense girlfriend you wish you’d had from the start. Julia Maroney walks you through every step: wrestling imposter syndrome to the ground, building a writing habit that fits your real life, navigating publishing with confidence, and leveraging your new author status to unlock opportunities you haven’t even imagined yet.

Your knowledge is too valuable to stay locked in your head. Someone out there is waiting to read what only you can write.

Across the table, open blank pages suggest possibility and new beginnings. Shot from a straight-on, eye-level composition with sharp focus, the atmosphere is uplifting, motivating, and subtly feminine. The photographic realism and serene color palette support a welcoming, supportive environment for creative growth.
