Yes, I launched my series with just $35 but to set the record straight, here you are probably not going to find a manual on how to launch your books cheap. That’s not my intention. FYI - Publishing a book is costly. Two to three grand for editing. Three hundred to a thousand dollars for cover design. In short, you need somewhere between twenty-five hundred to four thousand dollars ($2500-$4000) just to make your manuscript publication ready.
