@Lilyana Ponce @Andrew Expert Thanks so much for the warm welcome! Honestly, my first book was more about pushing myself out of my comfort zone and proving I could finish and publish something, so in that sense it succeeded, even if sales weren't great. The big lesson I took away is that I didn't just fail to prepare a proper launch strategy. I honestly wasn't even aware that a launch strategy was a thing you needed to plan for. So this time around, I'm focusing a lot more on understanding and planning the launch itself, not just writing the book 😊

@Tracey Hayden Thank you so much for the warm welcome! 😊 My first book is actually about something very personal to me, it's for working women who struggle to switch off from work mode when they get home. You know that feeling when you're physically at home but your mind is still stuck at the office? That's exactly what the book addresses. I wrote this because it came from my own experience. Here's the link if you'd like to take a look: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GT5W381N/ As for working with a publishing specialist, for now, I'm still very much in the learning phase, figuring things out as I go. I think if there's something I genuinely can't do on my own, I'll definitely reach out for help. But for the moment, I want to understand the process myself first. We'll see how it goes! 😄
