SELF PUBLISHING: Online

My choice to publish online came about because of the global reach of Amazon, Kindle and Smashwords. And through Smashwords to Kobo, Barnes and Noble, Tolino, Odilo and Gardners, Baker and Taylor, and A Gift of God can also be downloaded on Apple iphones. This means that it is available to far more people than through the printing and selling of my book locally, although I will be doing that too.

In South Africa there is a smaller percentage of people buying new books, and the local book stores, including Christian book stores, prefer to stock the well-known authors, especially the overseas ones. So, for a South African author who is publishing for the first time, like myself, publishing online is the best option.
