Dear Abyss ...journey of a self publish book UK

 April 2026


Dear Abyss,

The book is finished (I think), now for all the bits that need adding after the book is finished…

The title page: 

The title is there and my name and publishing imprint name is at the bottom of the page. It still needs an illustration, which may be a version of the cover picture, which I have yet to do. 

The title page verso: 

On the reverse side of the title page, the title page verso is where the copyright information goes, along with publication date and ISBN, which I have yet to apply for, as I have already used all ten of my ISBNs and need a new stock.

The blurb: 

A first draft of the blurb is already written, and will go on the back cover of the book.

The cover: 

The cover is the first thing any prospective reader will see, so it needs to grab attention and convey what to expect inside, as well as a clear title.

So my next job is the cover.

Bye for now
