## Resource

Biz Buzz What Are My Self-Publishing Options? There are many options authors have to self-publish their book. We begin by defining the term self-publishing and then go into more details about some of the options authors have to self-publish. We cover some of the major players like Amazon, IngramSpark, and Draft2Digital but we mention a few newer options as well. This is by no means an exhaustive list but it does cover the major players in the publishing industry. Finally, we offer up a few different red flags to watch out for when working with a self-publisher. Timestamps Biz Buzz Segment: What Are My Self-Publishing Options?
