Before the Launch
Prepare for the self-publishing process so your book stays relevant, and marketable, for longer. Before the Launch isn't a book. It's a manual. If you are looking for a book to curl up with, be entertained by, and read cover-to-cover in a couple of sittings, Before the Launch isn't for you. This manual has been compiled over the course of 14 years, during which we've managed the publication of more than 400 books for our self-publishing clients. It contains detailed advice based on our experience in using KDP, IngramSpark, Bowker, and numerous other self-publishing tools and services—and now we're sharing it with you. Before the Launch is your guide to understanding the important decisions you need to make and things you need to do during the book preparation process that have an impact on marketing success once your book is released. These decisions and steps are rarely considered "book marketing," yet marketing can and does suffer if these tasks are not done correctly, or not done at all. Why do we call Before the Launch a manual? — Self-publishing is a multi-step process, executed over the course of weeks and months. Before the Launch is designed for "just-in-time" learning. — Publishing a book is a multidisciplinary project, requiring business, legal, marketing, and research know-how. Each of the 58 topics has color-coded cross references to related topics. — The publishing tasks that lead up to the release of a book overlap with each other. Before the Launch includes our trademarked 14-track Countdown to Book Launch© timeline that illustrates these overlaps so you can stay on track during the lead-up to your book's release. Like any good manual, our guidance is findable when you need it—and we've built in learning extensions We've put as much care and thought into how the manual is organized as we have put into writing it. Our goal is to teach you what you need to know, when you need to know it. — The manual is organized into 5 sections: PREPARE, REGISTER, AMAZON, REVIEW, and RELEASE. — We've included 140 links to additional authoritative information for deeper learning or additional resources. — Your purchase includes access to 3 orientation videos: a tour of KDP, a tour of IngramSpark, and how to view an Amazon book product detail page like a publisher. — Because publishing timelines overlap, the 58 topics contain 283 color-coded cross-references to help you quickly locate related topics. — We've even included downloadable Word, Excel, and PDF files to make it easier to perform the exercises recommended in the topics: comp research, metadata collection, running a price-drop sale, and coordinating ARC printing with POD distribution via KDP and IngramSpark.

The beautiful new novel that will make you laugh and cry, from the global bestselling author of Anxious People and A Man Called Ove. ‘A stunning, sweeping, extraordinary story of connection, love, and the unbreakable bonds that guide and shape us. Full of humour and heart, My Friends is simply wonderful’ Chris Whitaker * AN INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * * WINNER OF GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD FOR BEST FICTION 2025 * * SHORTLISTED FOR AMAZON'S BEST FICTION BOOK OF 2025 * * AN AUDIBLE BEST LISTEN OF 2025 * * A BARNES AND NOBLE NATIONAL BOOK CLUB PICK * You have to take life for granted, the artist thinks, the whole thing: sunrises and slow Sunday mornings and water balloons and another person’s breath against your neck. That’s the only courageous thing a person can do. In the corner of a world-famous painting, three tiny figures sit on the end of a pier, a secret hidden in plain sight. Twenty-five years ago, a group of teenagers found solace in each other during one unforgettable summer. Their friendship inspired a transcendent work of art, a painting that now mysteriously belongs to eighteen-year-old aspiring artist Louisa. Driven to learn the story behind its creation, Louisa embarks on a journey to the seaside town where it all began. But as she gets closer to the painting’s birthplace, Louisa learns that happy endings do not always take the form we expect. Fredrik Backman returns with an unforgettably funny, deeply moving tale of four teenagers whose friendship creates a bond so powerful that it changes a complete stranger’s life years later. Readers can't get enough of My Friends . . . (***** five star reviews) 'It was perfect. I have no other words to describe this masterpiece. Like, what the hell was I doing all these years??' 'I haven’t read a friendship story this genuine, heartfelt, clumsy, straightforward, smart, sentimental, shocking, and emotionally resonant in a very long time.' 'Is it too early in the year to pick my favourite read of 2025? I think not, as this will be hard to beat.' 'Backman remains my absolute favorite.' 'Absolutely brilliant and beautiful ... I loved, loved, loved this book.'
