Kent: 'Running State' author doesn't hide from self-published label » Currents » The Free Press, Mankato, MN: Some self-published authors are reluctant to admit that fact.

Forget Rejection, Struggling Authors. Publish Your Own Book. | Alaska Dispatch: Like many new writers, Deborah Reed started by pitching her two novels to traditional publishers. After one particular rejection, she told her agent to stop bothering.

How Amazon made self-publishing cool | Stuff.co.nz
for the record i have been very satisfied with Amazon.com and its services like CreateSpace.com. Although it is a corporation and probably very ruthless with its business methods I do appreciate them and how they have helped me.

How to Sell Books: Well What Kind of Book Are You Selling? | Business 2 Community: Obviously the top question I get from visitors to the How to Sell Books website is “so how do I sell my book??”
Well the first two questions that I have are: “what kind of book are you trying to sell in the first place? And to whom?” Many new self-publishers don’t really know the answer to those questions.

New cover art!
I thought that just for an experiment I would create new cover art for volumes two - four in my book series using photos of the actors I wish to one day play the roles in the motion picture. There is no movie contract yet but it never hurts to fool around at least with cover art.
For now I have only updated them on Smashwords.com. Maybe tomorrow I will move on to kindle.
