Description:
Self-publishing’s popularity is skyrocketing, along with its legitimacy in the marketplace. More than one million books are self-published every year (with each one needing an editor).

Both authors and editors are drawn to self-publishing for the freedom and control it allows—along with the ability to make more money than many publishers provide. For editors, there’s no one between you and the client, and you can focus on the projects and writers you prefer. Plus, you can finally set the rates you want and need.
