How I Do It: Melissa Foster Shares Her Top Tips for Self-Publishing Success

What's the secret of your success?

Melissa Foster, bestselling self-published authorI'm afraid there are no secrets, and there is no magic. Although, if there are and I'm missing them, I wish someone would clue me in.
I write fast, and I'm careful about the quality of work that I produce. Quality is the most important aspect of publishing (IMHO), so I don't skimp on the editorial process. I work with a highly skilled developmental editor, a professional copy editor, and three proofreaders.

Emails from the Edge defies today’s world of political correctness where every word is carefully censored so as not to offend anyone. Kristie Leigh Maguire is open, honest, and sometimes over-the-top funny in her email correspondence with her friend back in the States with whom she shares her thoughts and feelings while living overseas as an expatriate wife during the decade of the 90s. Emails from the Edge, gives the reader the feeling of being a voyeur, pulling back the curtain of friendship, and finding out they are not just talking about milk and cookies.
USA Today Bestselling Author Rebecca Forster had this to say, “A bold, honest look at how two cultures collide and lessons learned. Some may think KLM politically incorrect; I say she is courageous to share her honest feelings and inner thoughts. It is really gutsy and fascinating.”
