It’s been quite the year of growth and learning, and I couldn’t think of a better message to wrap up 2012 than Live A Life That Matters.

Thanks for your ongoing support and patience these past couple of months, especially while we were busy expanding the I C Bookstore on-line and launching the Virtual Book Tour for my next book, Working From Home & Making It Work©.

Traditional Versus Independent Publishing

Shortly after my experience self-publishing Hearts Linked by Courage, I reflected on how much I would’ve appreciated someone to walk me through a number of the steps, the ins and outs, the researching and comparing certain services, as well as helping me with an expanded platform to share my book and message. This is when I decided to launch I C Publishing to help other authors like me have more choice, more support and more hands-on where they could or wished to – not to mention keep a healthier portion of their book revenues in their own pockets.

Process & Purpose by New Author, Jim Baston

Why did you choose the story-telling format you used?

Jim: I wanted to write a “how-to” book on the subject, but I struggled with what form it would take. I chose to go with a fictional account because I thought it might be more interesting for the reader and I hoped that the reader would see elements of themselves in the characters. There were also some people issues that needed to be considered, and I thought the story approach would allow me to explore those interpersonal issues more effectively than a straight forward “how-to” book.
