BiblioCrunch | Self-Publishing Resouces

So you’ve written your book, took some hefty criticism from your reader friends, and edited it countless times until you achieved a pristine and gripping novel. But now what? How do you get your story to the masses without resorting to a printing press? Luckily, most Americans already own your solution. You can put your books on those tablets devices everyone seems to be purchasing these days. Of course, you can’t just upload a .txt or .doc file up on iTunes or Google Play. You have to convert your book to a format supported by these online stores.
