Here are few steps on how you can publish your own romance novel –
- Know your lane of romance
Romance has different genres – you need to be clear as to in which lane you want to move. Your plot, your characters, your style of writing, and your individuality as a writer is what will make you different and unique. - Set a publishing budget for yourself
Self-publishing requires you to be an entrepreneur, and the responsibility for ensuring that your book looks professional falls solely on your shoulders. So the first thing you need do is calculate the cost of self-publishing your book. This should contain an estimate of the expenditures for photography, design, and editorial assistance. - Put your work in the context
Your work is how people will recognise you. Your individuality as a writer will be shown through your story. Be as realistic as you can along with a hint of humour and elements of romance writing – the ups and downs, the need of climax, the turn of events for good and bad. - Edit your book yourself
DO make as many changes as you can. Begin with a title; write the simple portions first, then progress to the more challenging parts. It is necessary to edit constantly. You’re misguided if you think your first draught is ideal. You can find your genuine beliefs through editing. DO NOT BE AFRAID OF FAILURE. It’s simple to play it safe while yet explore popular subjects. Ideas, on the other hand, are relatively cheap, and the vast majority of them are incorrect. Before you identify the good ones, you must test a huge number of them. Don’t be overly attached to it or anxious that it will be taken. They are highly unlikely to do so. - Look for the suitable publishing house for you
- Compare pros and cons
Each publishing house will have something you’d like and something you’d not, make sure to weight all the possibilities and possible scenarios before you choose the suitable publishing house for you. - Trust the process and coordinate with the team
Discuss everything with them, then sign a contract to start the process. Keep up with the process and enjoy the thrill of becoming a new author. Make sure you understand what you need on your cover page, your book’s genres, and who your target audience will be. Make an attempt to be a good sport as a client/author, and keep your project team members motivated as well.
