Creative control is the ability of authors to make the final decisions about the content, style, and presentation of their books. It is essential for authors to maintain creative control over their work since it allows them to express their artistic vision while ensuring that their publication is presented in the way they intended.
As an author of multiple books, I understand the many challenges faced by first time authors. Back in 1992, when a well-known publisher agreed to publish my book, I was thrilled. However, I contractually relinquished most of my control regarding rights to my work along with editorial and graphic decisions.
After having my first two books traditionally published, I decided to self-publish my next book. Although I had a lot to learn, I was able to keep my vision for my book while quadrupling my royalties.
In the process of self-publishing my book, I made several mistakes. I admit, it was a huge learning curve.
Since I didn’t want future authors who elected to self-publish face these same challenges, I established JOYFUL LIFE PUBLISHING (JLP). The purpose of JLP is to empower writers, like you, to take their dream book from the first thought to the bookshelf. JLP’s portfolio of À La Carte concierge services keeps writers from making the same costly mistakes I made.
It’s time to stop talking about your book and start writing it.
So why are you still waiting? You have something great to say! Share your wisdom & make a difference.
EMBRACE YOUR PURPOSE! LIVE YOUR DREAM!
