# Self-Publishing Production
## Core Lens
Production begins after the manuscript's big-picture structure, promise, and reader value are mostly working. These tasks are predictable and solvable, but doing them too early wastes effort because beta feedback may still reshape the book.
Use this skill to plan or audit:
- Copyediting.
- Final review readers.
- Proofreading.
- Interior layout.
- Cover file requirements.
- Print-on-demand and retailer setup.
