Self-Publishing Regrets: The Stuff We Wish Someone Told Us

If we could start our self-publishing journeys over… we’d do a lot differently.

In this episode of Fully Booked by Represent Publishing, Brittany and Chelsea get uncomfortably honest about their biggest self-publishing regrets, the mistakes we made, the lessons we learned the hard way, and the things we wish someone had warned us about from day one.

From disastrous first book covers and imposter-syndrome-fueled editing decisions to misunderstanding what authors actually need from professionals, we’re sharing the behind-the-scenes missteps that shaped how we work today. Not to shame our past selves—but to save you time, money, and unnecessary frustration.
