- To Self-publish, Or Not To Self-publish: That Is The Question
By: Dana Rongione | - One of the top questions in writing today is whether or not one should self-publish. Let's face it. Traditional Publishers receive hundreds of thousands of manuscripts each year, and only a small percentage of those make it into print. The rest are either thrown away or returned to the sender with a nice form rejection letter. For this reason, it makes sense for writers to explore the possibility of self-publication. That being said, let's weigh out the pros and cons.

- Want To Self Publish Your Book?
By: William Dorich | - Self publishing has such a romantic ring to it... that pioneer spirit or the Don Quixote approach to getting your title in print.

- How To Make Money Self-publishing A Book
By: Charlie C Williams | - This is a tough one. Very few books make money. The most profitable self-publishers use the book as a thick business card. They use it to introduce people to their concepts or ideas, and in exchange, the reader is enticed to buy their higher-end products and services. Thus, the book is a loss-leader used to bring in new customers to a business.
However, if you're writing a book of fiction, you can still do well with self-publishing. A well-written book that is interesting to a la ...

- Writing Jobs: Can Authors Really Earn A Living Writing Through Self Publishing?
By: kb | - The answer is YES. And I am living proof of that yes.
After graduating from college in beautiful downtown Worcester, MA, it was my single-minded goal to write and publish a book. My own book. It consumed me. I could imagine nothing less. (Looking back I wonder if me being so naive didn't actually help me in the long run.)

- The 4 Biggest Reasons Every Author Should Count On An Author's Assistant
By: Gail Richards | - Author's assistants are well-known inside the publishing world, but not recognized by many outside of it.

- Is Self Publishing The Right Choice For You And Your Book?
By: Gail Richards | - Self-publishing, although not a new phenomenon, is now a legitimate acceptable route to a published book for an author. In the self-publishing model, the author keeps the rights to his or her book but pays all the costs for producing, printing, and marketing the book and other ancillary products.
Self-publishing is a better option than it once was because technological advances have made it easier for an author to write, design, and create her own book. In addition, it is now m ...

- Traditional Or Self Publishing Which Is Right For Your Nonfiction Book?
By: Gail Richards | - One of the big decisions for you to make as you write your book is to consider whether you want to find a traditional publisher for your book or self-publish.
Until a few years ago, authors considered self-publishing only after being turned down by traditional publishers. Times have changed.

- Self Publishing 101 How To
By: Daniel Millions | - There are many great advantages of self publishing an ebook, rather than a traditional print style book. The main advantage has got to be the cost.
When you publish a print book, you have to pay the publisher. When you publish your own ebook you are the publisher. When you publish a print book, the publisher always gets a cut of your hard earned money from the books sales. But when you sell each ebook, the profit is 100% yours.

- Eleven Steps To Print Publication
By: Kay Stoner | - Creating a printed book is a bit more complicated than creating a PDF eBook. More steps are involved, just by right of producing a tangible finished product that needs to be handled in the physical world (versus an electronic document that can be distributed by e-mail or online).

- Breaking The Rules To Success: A Writer's Journey
By: Maxine Thompson | - Copyright 2006 Black Butterfly Press
In October of 2000, as I sat on the white sands of Cancun with other fellow literary entrepreneurs, it occurred to me: Things would be different if I hadn't broken the rules. Instead of sitting there, looking out at the aqua blue waters, I'd still be waiting by the phone for a call from my then agent. Instead, here I was, surrounded by 13 book clubs representing 25 states, on a Caribbean cruise. It was literary nirvana for me.
