Summary
Self-Publishing School is Chandler Bolt's coaching business, now run under the selfpublishing.com brand, where its program pages and prices live. Programs bundle a year of coaching, a video course, a community and done-for-you formatting, cover design, ISBN and publishing to Amazon; enrollment goes through a sales call. It is aimed at first-time nonfiction, fiction, memoir and children's authors, not at low-content or volume KDP publishers. The same company owns The Book Designer and The Write Life, so reviews on those sites are not independent of it.
