  5. This book sounds great! I love how it touches upon both traditional and self-publishing. Most how-to books like this only focus on one of those paths, or--if they mention both--have a strong preference for one over the other. This seems like a refreshing change of pace!

  9. Very interesting. Even though I'm not a writer -finding out the process that goes in traditional and/or self publishing along with their disadvantages is intriguing. I read a post once about an author's experience in self publishing -how much works she's put in and since then, I see the books on the shelves in a different light.

    1. It's a lot of work to market a self-published book. I'm sure this book will shed some light on the whole process.
