    Can’t I just use one ISBN for all my projects?

    Pro tip: nooooppeee

    Can I just not pay taxes on the books I sell?

    Naaahhh you can’t just not.

    Can I do a reading alone or should I invite people?

    You can always do a reading alone, but everything is more fun with friends.

    What if I want to publish other people?

    You have to register as a business. We’ll talk about it in this guide.

    How do I know which platform is right for me?

    We have the skinny on all the best platforms and options for you.

    Can I just not get my book edited?

    Er. Yeah, you could. But why would you risk it?
