If you landed on this page, you probably attended the 2024 Triangle Association of Freelancers’ (TAF) Write Now! Conference. Thank you!

This page contains the PowerPoint and follow-up handout for the session “A Beginner’s Guide to Self-Publishing: Everything You Need to Know Before Jumping In.” In the handout you will find links to numerous articles on this website, categorized for easy reference.

If you have questions I didn’t address, feel free to email me at karin@clearsightbooks.com, and I’ll see if I can point you in the right direction.

Monthly Newsletter

While you’re here, if you found my talk and these resources useful, you might like to sign up for the Clear Sight Books monthly newsletter. In each one you get a full-length article about books, on topics such as self-publishing, traditional publishing, technology, craft, mindset, business strategy, and more, as well as links to related articles, upcoming events, and other writing-related tidbits.

“I get so many newsletters. Yours is the one of the few I look forward to getting. I always open right it away and read it start to finish.”
