Self-publishing Made Simple is a practical guide divided into four stages:

1. Preparation: writing, editing, planning and researching your manuscript,

avoiding vanity publishers.

2. Pre-press: organising bibliographic data, accessing the book trade networks,

text design and layout, cover design, permissions.

3. Printing: comparing new short-run digital printing with traditional offset

printing, cutting through the ‘tech-talk’, finding a professional printer to suit

your budget.

4. Sales & Marketing: planning your launch, generating publicity (media

releases etc) handling interviews effectively, methods of distribution, stocking

bookstores.

It also contains an extensive list of industry contacts and a technical glossary.
