Abstract: The article focuses on the experience of an indie author navigating the hybrid publishing model for her debut novel, *Flooding the River*. Hybrid publishing combines elements of traditional and self-publishing, allowing authors to maintain creative control while collaborating with professional teams for editing, design, and distribution. The author shares her journey of seeking a publisher, ultimately choosing Wise Ink Creative Publishing, and discusses the benefits and challenges of hybrid publishing, including the lack of an advance and the need for self-directed marketing efforts. She expresses gratitude for the opportunity while acknowledging the financial barriers that may limit access to this publishing route for some aspiring authors. [Extracted from the article]
