March 1, 2021

Over the years, self-publishing (or online-publishing) has been getting more popular and it’s no surprise that it attracts both beginner and experienced writers. There are many self-publishing websites to choose from, but they all work a little differently. So how do you find the right self-publishing platform for your needs?

Here’s a breakdown of some key benefits LiveCarta offers to help you decide if this is the right platform for you.

 

Why LiveCarta?

Publish whenever you’re ready.
With little to no down time, get started with the word editor to write your book and enhance it with digital features — add video, audio, images, links, tables, and more.

 

Earn high royalties.
