The #1 Mistake New Authors Make And How to Avoid It! Don't Make These Mistakes as an Author

So, you’re ready to self-publish—exciting! But before you hit “publish,” there’s one major mistake many new authors make…


They rush the process.


Whether it’s skipping proper editing, rushing their cover design, or neglecting marketing, impatience can sabotage your book’s success. Here’s how to avoid it:


Edit like a pro – Use tools like Grammarly, or hire an editor.


A great cover is non-negotiable – Your book is judged by its cover. Invest in or create a strong design.


Marketing starts before publishing – Build an audience early! Pinterest, email lists, and social media help.
