One of my entrepreneur friends, Ashley Eneriz is a mom, author and a freelance writer.

If you are interested in becoming a writer, here is how Ashley — in her own words — was able to achieve her dreams.

Writing a book has been my dream since I was five.

I have never strayed from that dream, but in my late teens and early 20s, I started to see that writing and publishing a book were only for the lucky.

Even superstar writers like J.K. Rowling had to endure years of rejections before finally getting her break. Would it even be possible for someone like me to see my name in print?

Do you feel the same way? Do you wish you could make your dream of writing a book come true but do not even know where to start?

I get it! I was in that same spot until I decided to make my own writing dreams come true with self-publishing.

In this guide, I walk you through my self-publishing process, break down the cost of self-publishing, talk about finding and hiring an illustrator, and how much money I make through my self-published books.
