The Surprising Decision That Transformed My Journey as an Author – Inside Chris Emery’s Choice of a Publishing Partner
More importantly, independent publishing lets me make every decision. I decide when the book is ready. I select my own editors. I approve every revision. I work directly with the cover designer. I set the publication schedule. If new discoveries emerge after publication, I have the flexibility to update future editions without waiting for contractual approvals or for rights to revert.
For many authors, those responsibilities can feel overwhelming. Oddly enough, they’re the part I enjoy the most. After spending decades leading complex organizations and managing large technical projects, coordinating editors, designers, printers, websites, speaking engagements, and marketing campaigns doesn’t feel like a burden.
