Last week I showed you how to register your book for copyright in a step-by-step tutorial. Now that your book is registered for copyright, it's time to create the copyright page for your book. In this video, I'm going section by section through my own copyright page to show you the different elements you might want to include in your book's copyright page.

As an indie author, you've probably wondered what you can do to protect your work and make sure it doesn't get stolen. During the self-publishing process, you'll need to figure out what it means to copyright your book, how to copyright it, and when you need to file for copyright. Today we'll be answering all those questions, as well as providing a step-by-step tutorial on filing your book for copyright.

It's been a long time since I've done an in-person book signing, but I finally had another book signing and it was not only fun, but a huge success! In this video, I'm sharing with you the things that worked really well and how they helped me sell more books during my book signing event! It's also a fun look at the behind-the-scenes of doing an author book signing event!

Thereās only two days left to my Kickstarter and the pressure is real š
I think Iāve experienced every emotion possible during this Kickstarter, but to be completely honest Iāve struggled a LOT with reaching the right readers.
Closed door romance isnāt super popular on Kickstarter and while weāve reached so many stretch goals during this campaign, thereās one stretch goal that Iāve been dreaming of, and thatās to create character art that gets printed inside the books. Unfortunately weāre still about $1,000 away from that goal with only three days left until itās over.
It would mean so much to me if you backed the Kickstarter, shared it to your stories, or tagged a friend who loves romcoms in the comments below! Iām hoping in the last couple days we can pull out all the stops and finally hit my character art stretch goal!
Sparks in Iceland is a friends to lovers sweet romance where one bed forces two lifelong friends to confront their feelings

As many of you know by this point, I created a special edition & deluxe edition of my book, Sparks in Iceland, as a part of my Kickstarter. These editions of the book include photos from locations in the book, and I even have a digitally annotated edition of the book available as well! So many of you were asking how I created digital annotations, so in this video, I'm showing you how I took my formatted book in Adobe InDesign and added a few extra things to turn it into these beautiful special editions!
