Have you written a book or intend to? Are you aiming for mainstream publication? Do you intend to self-publish?
Are you overwhelmed by the sheer overload of helpful information available on the internet?
Are you thinking of taking a course in writing? Are you struggling with self-doubt or lack of confidence? If so, this book is for you. In plain English, the author, who has been there, done it, demystifies the whole publishing circus. For the prospective author, there's a mass of good information available on the internet - the key is in knowing what to look for in the first place. This critical overview doesn't provide all the answers but highlights questions a prospective author might not know to ask. It will save many hours of misdirected effort, and enable each author to create a focused plan of action. In a series of simple signposts, Insights for Aspiring Authors details the core skills required to write, review, publish, and promote good fiction (and other styles of writing). Based on many years of experience as both a mainstream-published and self-published author, and also as an experienced writing tutor, Daisy O'Shea provides an overview of the ever-evolving publishing platform, warts and all. Daisy O'Shea writes Women's Fiction published by Bookouture.

Her alto-ego, Chris Lewando, self-publishes adventure thrillers.
She has previously written mainstream romance and erotica under various pseudonyms. Her down-to-earth analysis of the world of writing provides a stable backdrop of information for anyone struggling to get published. COMPREHENSIVE, CONCISE, AND PRACTICAL
Reviewed in the United States:
'I've read numerous guides on writing and publishing, some good, many pedantic and abstract. For a new author, finding answers isn't difficult. Everyone has answers; it's knowing what questions to ask in the first place. Insights for Aspiring Authors provides an overview that covers every topic on writing fiction and getting published that you could possibly need to consider. The bite-sized chapters are set out in a clear, easy-to-follow format, exposing the processes and pitfalls in a memorable, conversational style that makes you feel as if the author is talking with you directly. And she knows what she's talking about. I've read one of her thrillers, proof of her own skills as a fine, commercial novelist. This is the most useful, practical, and authoritative guide of its type I've come across. If you're looking for something to give you an added edge in the competitive fiction market, this is it.' Thomas, USA.
