WritersWeekly.com’s Freelance Forum
This forum is a place for authors to ask for advice, share advice, and discuss current industry issues. Have a question? Post it here! Somebody will be able to help! Have a success secret to share? We wanna hear it! Found a new paying market? Tell us about it! Note: This is not a place for self-promotion. Listing your book or services in your email signature is fine. Blatantly using this forum to promote you product/service rather than to help others will result in deleted postings and possibly being banned from participation. If you notice abuse of this forum, please immediately contact: angela@writersweekly.com
You can publish stuff at smashwords.com but read the instructions carefully. Writingraw.com is another place. Let us know if you find others. A friend has been selling her books on Amazon and the folks at that site will tell you how to publish there.
