Lordy, I swear it was easier giving birth to my children than birthing a book.
Last September a voice inside me told me to record an audio of some passages from a family memoir I wrote ten years ago.
After one editor, an illustrator, a book cover/website designer, a voice coach, and three months in a recording studio (I went from 40 stories to 20 when I saw how long it was taking and how expensive it was getting)—the twenty stories were completed, then mastered.
A second editor is reformatting the written version in InDesign for publishing, then will do the same for the eBook.
