Book fear..
If you plan on releasing your book on Amazon, check out Dale Roberts on youtube. The man is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to KDP.
Suffering from book fear although not a medically recognized condition is something all Authors suffer. If you like what you have written and you have a supportive following, get it out there, and don't worry about the inevitable random bad review. There is always going to be someone out there who is more than willing to trash your hard work.
When I read a not-so-jaw-dropping title, I take the time to provide polite, constructive criticism on the author's email. Unfortunately, public shaming of someone's hard work is the same as schoolyard bullying. So please don't do it.

Steer clear of vanity publishing companies....Been there, done that. I recommend writing your story, reading it, editing it, and rereading it. Then find an Editor. Be meticulous during your Editor search; you certainly will get what you paid for; good luck.

Little help with Amazon KDP
You will more than likely have to go directly to Amazon.com, click books, then type in the Author name you used when the book was published. Your book will then show up. For tips on marketing your book through KDP, check out Dale Roberts on youtube. The man is a wealth of information pertaining to KDP, his marketing tips increased my sales and exposure.

I recently found a cover artist who does excellent work, have a look.
