Dear fellow Independent and Self-pubbed author . . .

Dear fellow Independent and Self-pubbed author, don't ever belief you don't have the right to defend yourself. And do understand that if you try, there will be those who will label you the aggressor and an embarrassment to the publishing community in spite of everything about you that proves otherwise. Perhaps that's enough to keep you from standing up for yourself but I hope not. Believe in yourself. Believe in who you are and keep it real.
