Some people recommend traditional publishing, while others suggest using book publishing services for editing, formatting, and marketing support. It honestly feels a little overwhelming trying to figure out which path is worth the time and money. For authors who have already published a book, what helped you the most, and what mistakes should beginners try to avoid during the process?
