8. Write an E-Book
Forget publishing houses, literary agents and manuscripts…these days you can publish a book by yourself using the Internet and self-publishing tools like Amazon’s CreateSpace, Nook Press or companies like Lulu. You can write a book that you plan to self-publish and print physical copies of, but for the best opportunity to make money, try creating an e-book, which allows you to get your work into the market faster and earn more money. According to Amazon, you can “earn up to 70% royalty on sales to customers in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, India, France, Italy, Spain, Japan, Brazil, Mexico, Australia and more.”
