Whenever you put your work up for the world to read, review, critique, it’s a risk. So is stepping out of the house. But you still do.it right?I started blogging in 2014 .Here’s a full list of tools and resources I use to blog.I am a doctor and had zero writing or publishing sense starting out.

The biggest problem of publishing is Self-doubt. When I wrote my first Ebook with Blogchatter A to Z, I was confused. Why do I even want to try something like that? My husband is a friend. He insisted I do it because it was a helpful book. I still had doubts. Ignoring some negativity, plenty of Self-doubts, and my favorite imposter syndrome, I published.

So you want to self-publish a book? Are the logistics making you crazy? What if I tell you that you can test the waters with free resources?
Sharing my writing journey from health, to wellness, creativity, and back to writing seems like a full circle. But I now have several branches too. Wait till I tell you about them.

There has been no looking back after I fell through the looking glass into the world of writing. It was the summer of 2017 when I published my first book on KDP. Fruits for Life from the Nutrition Secrets series. Since then I have published f more books in this series. I started the Wellness Series (1)Blogging Secrets Series (2books)And in 2020 during my Pandemic Project The Krishna Mishra Mystery series (3 books).

This is not a listicle of my books but an important part of my creative journey.

I started with using Free software like Word, Grammarly, Canva. All have Perma-free versions with options to upgrade.

Microsoft word helps you edit, check basic grammar, format, insert a Table of content. The best part is the read-aloud function, which helps you catch problems with writing flow and grammar much quicker when you are self-editing.

The free version of Grammarly is perfect for checking the most basic grammar functions, up to a certain word limit.For plagiarism checking, you need a premium subscription. This is important when you write nonfiction and that involves research.

Canva is perfect for creating your book covers. The best part is their Resize option to create multimedia promotion material of different sizes for different platforms. It’s easy effortless and no headbanging while running out of time. I like sharing what I know. I was helped and still get help from all over the world on my quest to learn new art forms The least I can do is share what I know.
