Pamela Wilson and Jeff GoinsShould you look for a publisher or self publish your book? Jeff Goins says that might be the wrong question to ask. Instead, he and Pamela Wilson chat about a better approach you can take when you’re ready to bring your book to life.
Has your book stalled before it even started?
You know you want to write a book. You’ve got a topic in mind, and you’re looking forward to the day you can call yourself a published author.
But before you can move forward, you have to make what seems like an impossible decision: should you work with a publisher, or should you self publish?
In this episode Jeff Goins and Pamela Wilson discuss:
- Why Jeff and Pamela are talking about this topic and what you can expect from Zero to Book
- How to think about your goals for your book and plan for the long game
- Why the way you publish your first book isn’t as important as you may think
- What matters instead: an approach to book publishing that works (with examples)

Hi.
Well I loved your comments on learning content for a book through blogging. That is exactly what is happening with me so far. I’ve been writing my memoirs for years & I keep going with it but when I decided to blog until I could decide on how & when to try & publish it, I learned how much more I wanted to write.
I really liked hearing the pros & cons of each. I do think self-publishing would work for me for this one book but have another about daily blessings on the go, that I would like to submit & see if I could get a contract. Thank you… lots of good advice here.
Sincerely,
Lane
Glad to know you’re listening, Lane. Thanks for your comment and good luck with your book!
Hey Pamela and Jeff. You two make a solid team and I loved this first podcast.
I’m really looking forward to future episodes, too. I’ll self-publish my debut novel this year and I plan to self-publish a non-fiction book next year. I know this podcast will help me all around.
You two are rock stars in my book and I feel like your different styles complement and balance each other.
I’m really excited and thankful for you two taking the time to create content like this!
Glad to hear it, David. Lots of good stuff coming: I’m happy you’re finding it useful. 🙂
GREAT episode.
I love Jeff and love his generous and practical wisdom.
As someone who just published a book with a “big” Publisher, I learned SO many lessons along the way and am drawn to the “Both/And” idea of Traditional Publishing and Self-Publishing.
I’m excited to journey along with you in YOUR process and learn ideas and strategies for what’s next for my writing career!
Thanks so much.
Thanks for listening, Jarrett!
