Inside the Secret Struggles of Authors Who Just Want to Write but Fear the Publishing Maze
I have been inundated by ‘Vanity Publishers’ and I have managed not to become trapped by reading what I can about them online.
I struggle to get my head around the complexities of self publishing, and in particular in negotiating Amazon Ads. I would just like to write and have someone else hold my hand and take care of the tasks I get stuck on.

My name is Brian Whiddon. I am the Managing Editor here at WritersWeekly, and the Operations Manager at BookLocker.
First, BookLocker does not “compete” with Amazon for book sales. All of BookLocker‘s authors’ books are for sale on Amazon, as well as through thousands of retailers around the globe, including BarnesandNoble.com, Walmart.com, Target.com, BookAMillion.com, Chapters/Indigo in Canada, and countless others. Any retailer that has an account with our distributor can pick up their automated feed, and list our authors’ books for sale on their website.
