So You Want to Write is an instruction manual. That's not a put down. This extremely useful book tells aspiring authors step by step how to get their book published. It is the first one, I know of that spells out honestly how much it costs to self publish. His section on promotion had many workable ideas and the whole tone of the book was friendly and informative. If you can only buy two book on self publishing get Dan Poynter's book and this one.

This is a great primer on how to get started.... or to even decide if you want to publish your own book. Great advice and down-home common sense.

"The book, written in entertaining, common-prose style, not only provides useful insight into the writing process, but also the self-publishing, marketing and selling process of the non-fiction book." (Mr. Witt did not actually "star rate" the book)
