The most radical choice I’ve made in self-publishing is not putting my book on Amazon.

Tune in to this episode to learn:

  • Why I made this decision
  • What it means for my book
  • How I’m going to find readers anyway
  • & Exactly how many books I’m hoping to sell

Then join me in my journey of self-publishing without giving Jeff Bezos more money… by getting a copy of the book at yourattentionissacred.com!

Mentioned in the episode:

UPDATE: I’ve amended the start of this episode to share the unfortunate news that — if you distribute your book through IngramSpark, IT WILL ALWAYS be available on Amazon.

This was not clear before my publication date, but after many support tickets to IngramSpark they’ve clarified that “our distribution program is ‘All or nothing’ which that we are unable to leave out any of our distribution partners.”

I was able to stop the ebook and audiobook from going to Amazon, but the paperback version is now unavoidably there. Please buy it elsewhere!
