Unveiling a New Chapter: Celebrating 7 Years of Broken and Betrayed with a Fresh Cover
When I first considered writing and publishing Broken And Betrayed, the idea of self-publishing was unfamiliar to me. Back then, the traditional route—writing a manuscript, sending it off, and hoping for acceptance while fearing rejection—was the norm. This fear of rejection held me back for years.
However, everything changed when I discovered an online course in 2015 that explained the process of self-publishing. It promised freedom from traditional gatekeepers, and the idea of keeping all profits was incredibly enticing. Though I began writing my book that same year, it took me until July 7, 2017, to gather the courage and confidence to complete it, especially on a shoestring budget.
I managed everything—from using an online service for the cover design to finding someone to edit the manuscript. The process was challenging but ultimately rewarding. And now, seven years later, I felt it was time to refresh the book's exterior to better reflect the journey not only of the main character but also of myself as an author. The new cover, which I designed myself, visually represents the main character and offers a glimpse into her experiences.
The journey didn't stop with publishing; it led to new opportunities. Many people approached me to learn how they could also write and publish their books. Overnight, I became the 'expert' in a community of budding authors. This book also marked the beginning of a series, with a second installment that is long overdue. I am thrilled to say that I am finally working on this next chapter.
To those who have supported Broken and Betrayed over the years, your encouragement has been a cornerstone of my journey. Whether you've been with me since the beginning or have just discovered the book, your feedback is invaluable. If you haven't yet, please consider purchasing or gifting a copy. And if you've read it, I would deeply appreciate a review on Amazon. I'm also eager to hear your thoughts on the new cover, either here on the blog or on any of my social media platforms.
Looking ahead, there are exciting developments, including the upcoming sequel and other projects that I can't wait to share with you. Stay tuned for more updates and stories!
Thank you once again for being part of this incredible journey. The road ahead is bright, and I am excited to continue sharing it with all of you.
