ways to solve it ahead of time:o To avoid high interest rates, ask for a loan from

friends and family.o You can also borrow from a bank or other financial

organizations.o Creatively look for money (e.g. garage sale, part-time

jobs, etc.)If you have figured out the answers to these questions, then you're ready to publish your book!
