I think that self-publishing expenses are not necessarily in the same category as a marketing budget, and are often costly, but I also think that doing it right (as it sounds like you are) will yield far better results than doing it 'cheaper'. Good luck!

Thanks for that. That seems like good advice.

I have a story that needed to be told. I've spent way over budget on editing, book design and the cover and will do all that differently and with much less cost next time. Thank you for sharing a plan for budgeting and marketing. That's my next step since I'm self-publishing. I take my writing seriously and so appreciate learning from authors willing to share their experience.

That's a great question. My advice is this, if you want to pursue publishing seriously-not as a hobby- then yes. Invest in the basics, a good website and social media platforms. Don't spend a bunch of money in other places until you have a book you are actively selling (or pre-selling).

I mean I'm a full time stay at home mum, so I'm working, and I'm writing but I don't actually have a personal income as such. Should my husband and I set aside money for marketing (if I ever do get published?)
