If I write a book, but don't publish it on Amazon or get a publisher and just put it as a PDF on the internet, is that still officially publishing it?

Yes it is… it’s called ‘self-publishing’. There’s no compulsion for any budding author - to go through a large publishing company to get their work ‘out there’. However - before you upload it to the internet - in order to protect your work under copyright… save the finished book to a CD/DVD disk - and mail it to yourself in a strengthened envelope. That puts a date/time-stamp on your original work (Windows automatically tags files that way when t’re saved). Posting it to yourself - also puts the date (and possibly time) when the envelope went through the postal system. That way - no-one can subsequently claim your work as their own - since you have the original sealed copy.

Write on PDF: All You Need to Know

For example… Say you want to publish a novel with your initials. The first time you want a reader to know who you are… tell them the novel is a “self-published” work. They might still know your work in some fashion. If you are one of those “professional publishing writers” who want their work sold (via other publishing companies) to a larger audience — you'll need to register. Then… send that self-published version of the novel out to people, and let them know it is a novel written by your initials, with an initial of J.R. When they write back with their email address of your initials, as well as your email address of the person who sent the email to you — in the body section, add in your initials as well. For example: “My name/address: _______________________.” Then when you are ready to put your.
