List of 10 Successful Self-Published Authors Who Chose Self-Publishing

6. Rashmi Trivedi – Rashmi Trivedi is working at a middle management level in a leading Public Sector Undertaking and has worked in various departments such as operations, sales, and training.
Since her childhood days, she was passionate about reading. Unlike many who read when they find the time, she always took out time for reading. At all stages of her life, she was never too busy for a book.

In 2013, she was transferred to Bhopal where she stayed for three years, whereas her family stayed back in Delhi. It was during this period that she started writing poems and articles and sharing them with family and friends. She then started writing for her page and blog. 

She self-published her first novel, Woman, Everything Will be Fine, and then her first collection of poetry, Handful of Sunshine, Pocketful of Rain.

7. Stacy Rodrigues – “Even without sight, there is still a vision.” And this fits an author like Miss Rodrigues, who is visually impaired and an artist by profession. She has compiled her collection of poems and published it under the title, Reflections, and has written a novel titled, In Search Of. She is a trained and certified Yoga instructor and spiritual counsellor. The versatility of her passion does not end here; she has composed music and is also a singer.
The impairment does not prevent Stacy from pursuing her ambition but boosts her drive to live her life to the fullest, with positivity and bliss.

8. Mark Twain – “Books are for people who wish they were somewhere else”, wrote the author.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) was a genius author who was discovered and called “the father of American Literature” by William Faulkner. Twain founded his company, Charles L. Webster and Co, and self-published his books. The first two American publications of the firm, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant, were highly successful.

9. RK Mohapatra –  “Every individual has the potential to make meaningful decisions. Focus on specific goals and achieve them on time.”
Mohapatra is a famous Indian author who has written two books on Financial Planning: Investment Risk & Growth: A Guide for Investors about Investment Vehicles and Retirement Planning: A Simple Guide for Individuals. He describes the topic of financial planning for an individual along with future growth for a financial product in India, which also reflects an investor’s perspective on handling his or her hard-earned money carefully through proper investment planning.

He was recently conferred the prestigious Exemplary Leader Award 2019 at the 18th edition of Asia Pacific HRM Congress.

10. Jane Austen – “Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance.”
Perhaps due to this belief, Austen never married. Although, she did accept a suitor’s proposal for an evening.
She is a woman known for all her novels, which explored the theme of women’s dependence on marriage in the pursuit of social and economic security. She chose to self-publish her first three novels, Emma, Sense and Sensibility, and Northanger Abbey. We cannot possibly imagine a world without Jane Austen’s works as she was England’s first modern novelist.

Some authors chose to self-publish their work because traditional publishers were not ready to publish their work, and some understood the benefits and the author-oriented approach that a self-publishing company can provide them with. Which one do you think is you? Don’t you think that your story needs to be read by millions of readers? What are you waiting for? Get your work self-published now!
