I want to tell you how impressed and satisfied I have been with the entire process of self-publishing. I have been served with a standard of excellence, patience and grace at every level of this adventure. I want to particularly mention Rene Compton, Michelle Rincon, Kim Ludwig and Elizabeth Marrero.

    I work for Xulon Press as a Publishing Consultant. People call in from all over the world; I’m the guy on the other end of the phone that listens to their ideas and takes the time to consult with them.

I ask them what’s holding them back. I even coined a…
