The Self-Publishing Blueprint: How to Write, Publish, and Sell Your Book Without a Publishing Deal

"A fantastic overview of the entire self-publishing process—a must-read for anyone considering the indie publishing route." —Helen Scheuerer, bestselling author of the "Legends of Thezmarr" series

Over 100,000 copies sold. 70+ books published. One system behind all of it.

The Self-Publishing Blueprint is the step-by-step guide Daniel Willcocks wishes existed when he started — the one that treats you like a capable adult, not a customer to upsell.

This latest edition adds new sections, a complete bibliography of every tool and resource mentioned, and an update from cover to cover reflecting exactly how self-publishing works right now, and how to build a successful author career.

Whether you're staring at a finished manuscript with no idea what comes next, or you've published before and want to do it properly this time — this is the roadmap. No gatekeepers. No fluff. Just the system.

Inside, you'll find:

•The "Why" framework — lock down your motivation before you start, so you don't quit at chapter nine
•A cover design brief walkthrough most guides skip entirely — book info, feel, character traits, blurb
•Editing, formatting, and publishing, explained like a friend, not a textbook
•A launch and marketing plan that goes beyond "post on social media"
•A fully updated resource list — every platform and tool, in one place
•And much more!

Mindset to marketing. Start to finish. No permission required.
