Ten things I learned about self-publishing:
10. Smashwords doesn't call their uploading process "The Meatgrinder" for nothing.
9. I hate Smashwords.
8. I really hate Smashwords.
9. My husband should hide the next time I start the submission process to Amazon and, especially, Smashwords.
8. Trade/Epublishers would have made my life a LOT...LOT...LOT easier.
7. After two days of trying to format for Kindle and Smashwords, it's a good thing there wasn't a hammer near my computer...
6. Writing is hard. Self-publishing is a BITCH. And I love my husband.
5. At the height of frustration, one can always count on the dog to whine and stick his ball into your thigh while his tail wags expectantly.
4. I'm a masochist.
3. Maintaining 50 websites is easier than self-publishing one GD book.
2. I still have to do the POD formatting and I might claw my eyes out by the end of the day.
1. My book sold 14 copies in the first 5 hours and I haven't even told my family and friends it's out yet. oO
