Traditional vs. Self vs. Hybrid - Part Two

Traditional vs. Self vs. Hybrid – Part Two

The Write Pack Radio Rebroadcast

The question every writer faces in the modern world of publishing is if they should choose to try to be traditionally published, self-published or a hybrid. It is not an easy decision and can shape your career as a writer. This debate, which has raged and simmered for years, has been fanned into an inferno of dueling blogs around the question: Has the publishing world now been divided into a “caste system.” Follow along as the Write Pack feels their way through this maze.

This is part 2 of the discussion,
The Write Pack goes more into what do you really market, your book or yourself? They provide tips and insight based on their experiences!
