  • SPA Girls Podcast – EP021 – Pre-Publication Checklist (Part One)

    We're officially 21! Well, at least 21 episodes into the SPA Girls Podcast... This week we dive into some really meaty content - it's the first of a two part series on what you'll need to have organised before you publish your book onto the various retail platforms. This first episode talks about tax numbers (ITIN and EIN etc) and whether you need them, ISBN numbers (what they are, and why you might choose to get one), copyright for your books, bank accounts and accountants, pen names, and front and back matter in your book.
