Self Pub 101.7 (Shape & Size)

Consider the form factor of your physical book.

Imagine holding your book.

What size do you want your book to be?

Will people be carrying it around?

Will they be writing in it?

What size and shapes are the books you examined earlier? Why do you think they chose that size?

How long is your manuscript? How many pages?

Check your printer and see if there are any page count requirements. There may be a minimum page count for hardcover books for example.


Let’s discuss.

Share your reflections or questions about this part of the process below.
