Self-Publishing Fiction – Help For Authors
Whether you’re a new fiction writer ready to publish your first book or an experienced fiction author looking to expand your audience, my Self-Publishing Packages are designed with you in mind. At Fuzzy Flamingo, I help you connect with your ideal readership, enhancing your opportunity to achieve best-seller status on Amazon.
Supporting Fiction Authors to Self-Publish
I’m passionate about books and dedicated to supporting you in creating a captivating finished product from your manuscript that delivers a memorable reading experience whether downloaded to a Kindle or a physical paperback.
With over a decade of expertise in publishing, I bring a wealth of knowledge to your book publishing journey. I work with authors from diverse backgrounds, offering every author and manuscript the attention and respect they deserve. My aim is for you to enjoy your self-publishing journey and craft the finest book possible. I provide honest and constructive advice on best showcasing your book and exploring its potential. I can’t promise a best-seller, but my experience has helped a lot of authors get to those top spots on Amazon. I’m here to help make that goal more possible than if you were to self-publish without the support of an expert.

How to Self-Publish Fiction
I have been a part of the publishing industry since 2010, and since founding Fuzzy Flamingo in 2017, my extensive experience spans traditional, partnership and self-publishing. Collaborating with me opens you up to my wealth of experience in publishing.
I’ve seen the barriers people face when it comes to publishing: not fitting into publishing pigeonholes, lacking confidence, and feeling overwhelmed with the options out there.
I help authors to figure out what they want and how to get there, holding their hand throughout the process to build their confidence and launch their book successfully.
I’m passionate, empathetic and love celebrating with my authors! I wholeheartedly believe that you don’t have to have excelled at school or be an expert in grammar to publish a good book; what you need is a good story and the means to tell it, and I help to be that means.

Publishing Jargon Explained…
I understand that navigating the terminology of the publishing world can be somewhat overwhelming if you’re new to it. So, I’ve broken down each part of my packages into a little more detail. Should you have any further enquiries about How to Self-Publish Fiction, please contact me.
Cover Design for your book
Full cover design is a key feature of this package. Specifically, for printed books, this includes the front, back and spine. Together, we collaborate to craft a creative design that suits both you and your Book perfectly.
Typesetting your book
The typesetting process begins with a style proof of the initial pages, allowing you to make any necessary stylistic adjustments. Essentially, the objective is to ensure that the audience can read with ease and pleasure. Following this, the entire book undergoes typesetting, transforming your manuscript into a “proper book.”
Proofreading
Following the typesetting, the next step involves proofreading the PDF of your typeset book. This stage serves as a corrective editing service. Importantly, the overall content or the unique voice of the author remains unchanged; instead, the focus is on rectifying mistakes, ranging from minor typos to errors in formatting.

Frequently Asked Questions About Self-Publishing Fiction
Find answers to commonly asked questions about our Book Self-Publishing Services.
Which fiction publishing package is right for me?
It depends on where you are in your writing journey and how much support you’d like. The most popular option is the Platinum Package, ideal for authors who want a full-service experience – from professional editing to beautiful typesetting and launch support. If you’re confident in your manuscript and just need help with formatting and publishing, the Bronze Package might be a better fit. Not sure? Jen is happy to chat and guide you to the best option for your goals.
Do you work with all genres of fiction?
Yes! I’ve worked with authors across a wide range of genres – from romance and historical fiction to fantasy, thrillers and literary fiction. If your story doesn’t fit neatly into a box, that’s okay too. I love unique voices and genre-bending narratives.
Will I get help with editing my novel?
Absolutely. Apart from the Bronze Package, all the packages include some level of editorial support. The Platinum Package includes a full copy edit to polish your prose and ensure consistency, as well as a proofread to catch any remaining errors.
Can I include illustrations or maps in my fiction book?
Yes! Whether it’s a fantasy map, chapter illustrations, or custom graphics, I can include up to ten images in the standard typesetting service. Need more? Just let me know and I’ll provide a tailored quote.
Will my book be available in print and digital formats?
Yes. We publish your book in both paperback and eBook formats, typically via Amazon KDP. If you’d like wider distribution (e.g., bookstores, libraries), we can support that too through platforms like Ingram Spark.
Do I keep the rights to my book?
Yes, 100%. You retain full ownership of your work. Fuzzy Flamingo is here to help you publish independently, not to take control of your creative rights.
Can I publish under a pen name?
Of course! Many fiction authors choose to use a pen name, and we’ll guide you through how to do this while keeping your identity private if that’s your preference. There are pros and cons, though, so book a chat if this is something you’re thinking of doing. All conversations are confidential.
Do you offer marketing or launch support for fiction books?
Advice on launching successfully, as well as tips on social media marketing strategies is included in all packages. Assistance with writing a press release can also be provided as an additional service.
What if I’ve already had my manuscript edited elsewhere?
No problem. We’ll review your manuscript. If your manuscript is already professionally edited, we can move straight to typesetting and design with the Bronze Package (design only) or the Silver Package if you’d like the peace of mind of an additional proofread.
Can I get help with writing my blurb or author bio?
Yes! It can be tricky to write about yourself or summarise your story. I offer support with crafting compelling blurbs, bios and even your Amazon book description.
I’m nervous about publishing, will I get support along the way?
Absolutely. Jen prides herself on being your biggest cheerleader. She knows how scary it can feel and will provide regular updates, and she genuinely cares about your success. You’re never alone in this process. She also strives to make publishing as accessible and inclusive as possible, so if you have additional needs please do get in touch.
Do you work with non-fiction authors too?
Yes! Have a look at the non-fiction publishing packages for more information. Get in touch and we’ll let you know if we’re a good fit.
