Summary of The Self-Publishing Manual
Large Print Edition of this Popular Book "Why Not Publish Yourself?" Wouldn't you rather make more money, get to press sooner and keep control of your work? This manual is your complete reference for writing, printing, publishing, promoting, marketing and distributing books. Whether you are promoting a published book or plan to write and publish one soon, you will refer to this manual again and again. You will discover how easy it is to: . Build your book rather than just write it-and copyright it in your name. . Multipurpose your "book" into downloadable, CD and ebook versions. . Wring maximum value out of your "book" by spinning off audiotapes, videotapes, magazine excerpts, foreign-language editions and more. . Bypass the publishers and go direct to a short-run book printer. . Set up your own publishing company and take the tax breaks. . Promote your books with email, book reviews, autographings, feature articles and radio/TV interviews. . Get your book into chain bookstores, online bookstores, specialty stores and catalogs. . Use the Internet for promotion. Appendix 2 has over 40 pages of valuable resources complete with email and Web site addresses.
