The New Year is upon us and in keeping with the grand tradition of making ourselves promises we may or may not keep, most of us will embark upon the selection of New Year’s Resolutions designed to put us back on track (albeit in the short term) of pursuing goals that we have allowed to slip through our fingers up until now. We will all make a lot of commitments to losing weight, exercising more, redecorating our homes, and pursuing a myriad of objectives personal and professional in nature. It is what we do during this time of year, plain and simple.

For frustrated writers everywhere – those who have to write like they have to breathe, those who write for living, those who write but have yet to see their name in print – the New Year marks a time in which we can begin to once again pursue those goals that may have, up until now, alluded us. For most writers, the goals have to do with book publishing in some way or another; recommitting to seeing that book they have written - or are writing – through to the end and getting it to book publishers that may or may not see the possibilities of success in printing such a piece.

Not all books are accepted by book publishers, however, and so it is more than likely that these same writers will see their dreams dashed of working with a publishing house – at least on this particular book. And they may think that all is lost and that they should just give up the cause. But there are other options to getting that book in print and seeing your dreams come to fruition.

Self publishing offers a viable way to get that book in print and allow it to see the light of day. Traditional book publishers do not offer the only solution; self publishing allows writers to make their own rules.
