I bought this book when I was in the manuscript stage of my first book. I found this book to be a very educational one as I liked to write, but had no idea how to publish. This book is a very useful read and has much information in it that I refer to often. I now have my book on Amazon in Kindle format and coming soon in paperback thanks to this information. Bravo to the author. Great job!

If this book is its own example of self-publishing, then don't do it - at least not with the company he recommends. The book was poorly written in places and in other places poorly laid out, even to the point of repeated paragraphs and aborted lines resumed after a gap of several lines. Even a mediocre copy editor would have helped.

I have been writing for years, but only had one short story published. I've expanded my horizons, and in the past three years I have nearly finished two novels, and I am in the process of beginning a third. Over 20 years I have read countless books on the in and outs, development, and problems with putting together works, and I needed more detail information on what steps to take from there, i.e., looking for an agent and then onto publishing. Most of them are not very good, and offer only minimal information, but this particular book was different. It was not wordy, more simple in form, and more basic in the discussion of writing and then onto publishing. I think it is the best I've found, and from the standpoint of the inexpensive price, it's a steal. Well worth the purchase.
