The Technical Side of Self-Publishing

The Technical Side of Self-Publishing

Guest Post


By: Gaston (Dany Zuwen)



Ours is a great time for the self-publishing industry. The technology’s finally here, and the indie community is starting to shed the stigma (self-published writing is crappy) associated with it.
