Thank you for this! While I am a skilled writer, illustrator & photographer, there are other things that I didn't know about--like the whole business regarding ISBNs. I would've learned the hard way. I also appreciate the lessons on how to use KDSpy (and other software) to make the process easier. I ALWAYS try to learn from others' mistakes, and this is no exception. I whole-heartedly appreciate your candor, and your time in making this info available. >>Jeff Jackson

Very Informative

So far the course is very informative. Romney doesn't sugar coat the process, he tells it like it is from his own experience
