Once you gave all the files you can just use draft2digital to publish everywhere in print and ebook for free, they take a (small) cut of each sale. Please don’t pay for anyone to upload your books as that should be free and people often get scammed at that point.

My best company was in the us, streetlight graphics. Great guy called Glendon who can do formatting and covers. If you need to keep costs low then use draft2digital who can format for free and 100covers who do a good value professional cover. If you need it cheaper than that you could use canva.

Of course, I should have said that it's entirely thanks to @melissaaddey.bsky.social's brilliant webinar @societyofauthors.bsky.social (and the inspiring example of her own trailers) that I had the faintest idea of how to make a book trailer - and I'm rather pleased with the result...

Having found out about book trailers at @melissaaddey.bsky.social ‘s cool workshop with the societyofauthors.bsky.social, I’m finally storyboarding for mine. It involves running up six flights of stairs (these) with the camera on a gimbal in the semi-dark.

I love Ms. Addey's stories because she doesn't shy away from tough topics in a rigid historical setting.
