Hello all
does anyone have any resources to help me look at the feasibility of this, the essential information etc?
does anyone have experience of it? I would start off with my own work but would like to have an imprint to have a basis for possible expansion.
I wasn't sure if it was best to post here, or in Work, or in Creative Writing.
thank you.

thank you, I have signed up to those but for some reason, I am finding it hard to get to the nitty gritty of the actual process.
maybe I just have to wade a through a lot!

At its most basic
Write book
Edit
Cover design
Typeset/digitise ebook files
Proofread & correct
Upload to Amazon/ebook aggregator
Market the hell out if it - preorders, mailing list swaps, FB ads, Amazon ads, TikTok/Insta/FB communities to build readership
Rinse and repeat.
Only expect to break even by books 2-3. Make sure they’re all in the same genre and appeal to a readership you cultivate carefully.
Does that help?
